PSG Eyes Victor Osimhen as Secret Clause Could Spark Winter Move

This summer, the transfer market saw significant activity surrounding Kylian Mbappé’s departure from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). With the club now on the hunt for a replacement, they had been linked to Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen. However, Osimhen has opted for a loan move to Galatasaray, yet a hidden clause could potentially alter his future as early as this winter.

The end of an era at PSG

The 2024 summer transfer window marked a pivotal moment for PSG, as they bid farewell to their star player, Kylian Mbappé. The French captain signed with Real Madrid on a free transfer, prompting PSG officials to seek a suitable successor. Among the many names floated in discussions, Victor Osimhen was frequently mentioned. Ultimately, the Nigerian forward did not make the move to the Parisians this summer.

Despite his desire to leave Napoli, Victor Osimhen found himself unable to sign with any top European clubs and ended up in a contentious situation with his current club. Consequently, he was loaned to Galatasaray. His release clause has been reduced to €75 million, and PSG continues to monitor his situation closely.

A secret clause could change everything

According to reports from Football Insider, the possibility of a renewed pursuit for Victor Osimhen could arise this winter. The Napoli striker is believed to have a secret clause in his contract that would allow him to terminate his loan at Galatasaray if an appealing offer from another club materializes, paving the way for a potential permanent transfer. Thus, PSG may still have a chance to secure the talented Nigerian international. Stay tuned for further developments…
