Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) have ended their interest in Napoli forward, Victor Osimhen.

According to L’Equipe, the Ligue 1 champions ended their interest in Osimhen after signing Desire Doue from Rennes over the weekend.

PSG’s manager, Luis Enrique, plans to rely on Randal Kolo Muani as the main striker during Goncalo Ramos’ time on the sidelines.

Meanwhile, Osimhen, along with Michel Folorunsho, Gianluca Gaetano, and Mario Rui, were left out of Napoli’s squad for their match against Verona, possibly due to upcoming transfer moves.

Chelsea has shown strong interest in Osimhen, especially now that PSG is no longer in the race. The Blues have been linked with the striker all summer, and there have been talks of a possible swap deal involving Romelu Lukaku.

Chelsea's manager, Enzo Maresca, is eager to add Osimhen to strengthen their attack.
