Premier League outfits Chelsea and Arsenal are set to join PSG in the race for the acquisition of Napoli star-forward Victor Osimhen.
As it stands, the Nigerian clinical goal-scorer has been increasingly distanced from a stay with the Partenopei as the summer window has progressed. Despite having taken part in training sessions with the squad, the 25 year-old has missed the Azzurri’s most recent friendly match.
Whilst Osimhen has reached an agreement in principle with Ligue 1 giants PSG, the French side has put their pursuit on halt as they are not too keen to match club owner Aurelio De Laurentiis’ price-tag of €100m, nor activating the Nigerian hit-man’s €130m release clause.
As a result, the pair of English sides are set to take advantage of Osimhen’s situation in order to try and lure the Serie A star to London.
Il Corriere dello Sport, via TMW, claimed that both Arsenal and Chelsea have requested information from Napoli regarding Osimhen’s current situation.
