Victor Osimhen has again turned down offers to play in the high-spending Saudi Arabian league, preferring to remain in Europe and compete in the UEFA Champions League this new season.

There is a question over his future with Serie A team Napoli.

The 25-year-old wants to leave Partenopei, but no team is ready to pay his astonishing €130 million release clause.

According to Sky Sports, Osimhen still wants to leave Napoli but is unwilling to accept a transfer to Saudi Arabia.

The signing of French striker Randal Kolo Muani will reportedly spark Osimhen’s move to Ligue 1 side Paris Saint-Germain.

Osimhen has returned to Napoli for pre-season training but PSG, the perennial French Ligue 1 winners, remain his most likely destination this summer.
