Napoli and Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen tops the list of the world’s biggest transfer rumours ahead of the summer transfer window in 2023.
The 24-year-old striker is wanted by almost every major European club, despite the fact that Napoli has set a €150 million price tag on him.
Osimhen, who has 26 goals and 5 assists in all competitions this season, has a contract with Napoli that expires on June 30, 2024. But that hasn’t stopped his suitors from trying to entice him away from Napoli.
The Neapolitans are on the verge of winning their first Italian Serie A title in 33 years, thanks to Osimhen’s massive contribution.
With such consistent form, Paris Saint-Germain are said to be leading the elite European clubs in their efforts to bring Osimhen back to France, where he achieved international recognition as a top striker while playing for Lille.
If that deal goes through, it will be the largest transfer involving an African player in football history.
