There were speculations that the PSG is targeting the Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen. Napoli is ready to sell the Nigerian for €130m and the French side can be able to afford it. But Victor has shown his love for the Premier League and Chelsea have shown much interest. Napoli will be willing to let him go to any club that is willing to pay the amount so we might end up seeing the striker in PSG..
It's just speculation but I think Osimhen is the most viable option at the moment after they were left behind by Mbappe. PSG still dominates in Ligue 1 even without Mbappe, but at European level their strength will drop drastically. Mbappe really carried PSG. Osimhen has a release clause of €130m. That's a big price but It's not a problem for PSG. Unfortunately they had to release Mbappe on a free transfer. They should not have to pay €130m because Mbappe's market value is around €150m.
Osimhen last season was quite down compared to before and Osimhen is not a suitable replacement to replace Mbappe, especially at a fairly expensive price, and does not match his performance this season.
For PSG, of course money is not an obstacle for them, but they are also thinking about not wasting money on unreliable players, because Osimhen's performance has declined this season, it would be good for PSG to think about making an offer to Julián Álvarez because his performance was superior to Osimhen.

I think, with the bad results that Napoli got does not make Osimhen also judged badly because after all, it seems that the problem is about their coach who is not right. Thus, then Napoli get bad results but with the bad results that Napoli get, I'm sure it's not just because of Osimhen's failure. So yes, if Napoli price Osimhen at that price I think it doesn't matter too much because anyway, of course there will also be negotiations that will occur until an agreement is made. Because I am sure, Osimhen is suitable to play at PSG because after all, Osimhen is also young and it will be good for the long term of PSG too. What's more, previously Chelsea had an interest in getting Osimhen, but it seems that lately Chelsea may have gotten other players and abandoned their intention to bring Osimhen.
