Transfer expert names club that will sign Osimhen in summer

Transfer expert Ben Jacobs has disclosed the club Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen is likely to join when he leaves Napoli in the summer.

According to the American sports broadcaster, the 25-year-old will join Paris Saint-Germain and not Chelsea or Arsenal.

The Super Eagles striker has been linked with top European clubs in the last two transfer windows including the Ligue 1 champions.

Many have tipped the reigning African Player of the Year as a potential replacement for Frenchman Kylian Mbappe who is set to join Real Madrid in the summer.

The French club will fancy a top striker to augment their forward line ahead of next season.

Speaking on CaughtOffside’s The Debrief, Jacobs shed light on why he believes the ex-Lille forward will return to the French league.

“Arsenal like Joshua Zirkzee, they have been scouting Viktor Gyokeres, I think it’s less likely at this stage that they’re too aggressive on Victor Osimhen, PSG are maybe the more likely destination, but if Osimhen decides he wants to come to the Premier League and Arsenal enter the race, Arsenal can go head to head, they might even get ahead, financially speaking, of Chelsea.”

Osimhen has notched 11 goals in 17 league appearances for the Serie A champions this season.
