Recently French media outlet Le10 Sports released a series of intriguing reports. According to the outlet, despite the fact that Nigerian striker Ousmane is open to joining Paris Saint-Germain and his name is frequently in the transfer market rumor mill, he is actually not a top target for Paris Saint-Germain at the moment. Instead, there are indications that Chelsea FC are showing keen interest in Osmeen and could be the next stop in his career.
For their part, Paris Saint-Germain seem to be leaning in the other direction with their transfer strategy. According to reports, Paris is about to officially announce the introduction of midfielder João Neves from Benfica for 70 million euros, while also actively promoting the transfer of players such as Desiré Doué, Sancho and Nico Williams. This series of operations suggests that Paris Saint-Germain may pay more attention to the reinforcement of the midfield and the side position rather than making a large sum of reinforcements on the forward line when constructing the lineup for the new season.
For Osmeen, despite his personal expectations from Paris Saint-Germain, the reality is that he may need to look elsewhere. The management of Paris Saint-Germain have made it clear that they will not be bringing in a new player in the position unless there is a departure of a number 9 from the current squad. In addition, the club has also confirmed to both Gonzalo Ramos and Mouani that the strikers will remain with the team next season, which undoubtedly further reduces the likelihood of Ousmane joining Paris.
On the other hand, Chelsea FC's preference for Osmeen has provided a new option for the Nigerian striker. According to reliable sources, Chelsea appreciate Osmeen's technical characteristics and style of play, but they appear relatively cautious in luring the player and are not willing to directly activate the player's release clause of up to 130 million euros. This means that Chelsea may seek to negotiate with Napoli to complete the transfer deal at a more reasonable price.
