What PSG is offering Osimhen?

Meanwhile, PSG has offered Osimhen a four-year contract as the Ligue 1 giants intensify their pursuit of the Nigerian forward who still has one year left on his contract with Napoli, BSN Sports reports.

In addition, the Parisians are offering the 25-year-old striker a whopping €13 million annual salary and full control of his image rights should he join them next season.

Osimhen is reportedly Napoli’s highest earner and the second highest-paid footballer in the Serie A, and his move to PSG will see the Nigerian become one of the highest-paid players in the world.

Napoli identifies Osimhen’s replacement

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Napoli have identified Chelsea transfer target, Jonathan David, as the perfect replacement for Osimhen this summer should the Nigerian leave.

David is having an impressive season with OSC, scoring 23 goals and providing seven assists in 39 appearances for the Ligue 1 giants.
