According to L’Equipe via Il Napolista, Victor Osimhen missed training yesterday as he awaits Paris Saint-Germain’s official offer to Napoli for his signature.
The 25-year-old is trying to prevent any situation that could make it difficult for him to move to the French capital and as earlier reported is ready to force a move away from Naples.
He did not show up for training on Wednesday to protect himself from injuries and avoid compromising his proposed move to Paris Saint-Germain.
While it has been claimed that the French club are advancing in talks with Osimhen’s camp, they are yet to submit an official bid, which suggests that the deal is still in its infancy. The Ligue 1 defending champions want to dispose of Portuguese striker Gonçalo Ramos, who has been linked with Atletico Madrid, before forging on with their interest in the Super Eagles forward.
The earlier suggestion that Álvaro Morata move to AC Milan could help the reigning African Men’s Player of the Year leave Napoli, is proving to be so.
This is because the Spaniard’s departure has necessitated the need for Atletico Madrid to buy a new striker which explains the reason behind the link to Ramos.
Should the Portugal international eventually leave for Atleti, this will help PSG in completing a deal for Osimhen provided they are ready to match Napoli’s valuation.
