Napoli Open to Osimhen Transfer Amid PSG's Massive Bid
PSG Eye Napoli Duo Kvaratskhelia and Osimhen, but Conte Insists Kvaratskhelia Stays
Paris Saint-Germain has launched a significant bid to acquire Napoli's stars Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Victor Osimhen, according to Corriere dello Sport. However, Napoli's new boss, Antonio Conte, has firmly stated that Kvaratskhelia is not for sale, while Osimhen could potentially move if a suitable offer is made.
Kvaratskhelia's agent, Mamuka Jugeli, indicated that the Georgian international is likely to stay at Napoli, even suggesting a possible contract extension despite PSG's interest. Jugeli told Corriere dello Sport, "Kvaratskhelia without the Champions League? Then he wants to win the Scudetto. For the future, everything depends on the president of Napoli. If he thinks of selling Kvara, he will do so. If he wants the renewal, he will renew."
In contrast, Osimhen's situation appears more flexible. The Nigerian striker has a release clause set at €130m (£109m/$141m), and Napoli is willing to let him go if this amount is met. With
PSG's desire to bolster their attack following Kylian Mbappe's move to Real Madrid, Osimhen could be a viable target.
Napoli's determination to keep Kvaratskhelia showcases their commitment to maintaining a competitive squad under Conte's leadership. Kvaratskhelia's continued presence could be pivotal for Napoli's domestic ambitions, particularly in their quest for the Scudetto.
Meanwhile, PSG's pursuit of Osimhen aligns with their strategy to strengthen their squad with top-tier talent. If PSG successfully meets Osimhen's release clause, it could significantly enhance their attacking options for the upcoming season.
As the transfer window progresses, PSG may shift their focus more intently on Osimhen, recognizing the challenge of prying Kvaratskhelia away from Napoli. Napoli will aim to secure Kvaratskhelia's future at the club, while also preparing for the potential departure of Osimhen.
Napoli's upcoming friendly on July 16 will be an opportunity to assess their squad's readiness for the new season, amid ongoing transfer speculations. Meanwhile, PSG will continue to navigate the market, seeking to finalize their key signings before the season kicks off.
