Nigeria and Galatasaray forward Victor Osimhen remains top of the transfer wishlist of Champions League semifinalists PSG, Footynaija reports.
The Super Eagles striker is wanted by half of Europe’s biggest clubs, with Chelsea, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich and PSG among those credited with interest.
PSG, though, are one of the frontrunners as sources close to the club suggest he is the leading option to strengthen the forward line under head coach Luis Enrique.
However, the move is not straightforward. PSG’s interest in Osimhen is closely tied to the future of Goncalo Ramos, according to Fichajes.
FC Barcelona 🇪🇸 made a €125 million offer, while Paris Saint-Germain 🇫🇷 offered €75 million for Victor Osimhen (27) 🇳🇬 of Galatasaray 🇹🇷.

The 24-year-old Portugal striker is attracting attention from clubs across Europe, including Juventus, AC Milan and Aston Villa. If Ramos leaves Paris this summer, PSG are expected to move quickly for a replacement, with Osimhen seen as the ideal fit.
The club are looking for a striker who can lead the line with authority; someone capable of stretching defences, winning physical duels and delivering in key moments. Osimhen’s record suggests he fits that profile. His pace, strength and pressing ability have made him one of the most effective forwards in European football, particularly in high-level competitions such as the UEFA Champions League.
Financially, any deal will be demanding. Osimhen is currently under contract with Galatasaray until 2029, placing the Turkish champions in a strong negotiating position. Reports indicate PSG have explored offers around €100 million, but Galatasaray are holding out for closer to €150 million.
Gala’s prized asset Osimhen has scored 20 goals and provided eight assists in 32 appearances this season, following a previous campaign where he led his team to a domestic double with 26 league goals. His wages are also expected to be high, with estimates ranging between €15 million and €18 million per year.
Despite the cost, PSG believe Osimhen represents a reliable investment. His previous spell in France with LOSC Lille means he already understands the demands of Ligue 1, which could help him settle quickly.
