Nottingham Forest Poised to Make Big Splash for £63M-Rated Man Utd, PSG Target | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain has been linked with Victor Osimhen for the past two transfer windows, and as the summer window approaches, rumors are heating up.

Osimhen, now at Galatasaray, has regained the form that made him one of the standout players of the 2022-23 season, drawing interest from some of Europe’s top clubs.

The Nigerian striker has been in outstanding form this season, with 26 goals and five assists in 30 appearances across all competitions. According to GIVE ME SPORT, Manchester United has made him a priority target and could activate his €75 million release clause this summer.

Recently, Turkish journalist Yagız Sabuncuoglu reported that both Manchester United and PSG have made official approaches, submitting verbal offers regarding his salary and contract terms, and are planning to trigger his release clause. Meanwhile, Galatasaray manager Amorim is also eager to bring him into the squad.

TEAMtalk reports, citing sources, that Nottingham Forest are interested in Osimhen. The report also notes that Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis is highly ambitious and aims to establish the club among the top teams in England and Europe.

Forest are reportedly prepared to make a big splash in the summer transfer window if the team qualifies for the Champions League. Marinakis is ready to spend heavily and bring in high-profile players to ensure the club doesn’t become a one-season wonder.

Napoli are looking to sell Osimhen in the summer transfer window, but the striker is expected to demand a hefty wage and wants to join a top-tier club, per TEAMtalk. Forest wouldn’t have a problem meeting those wage demands, but whether they’d be a realistic option for Osimhen is still unclear.

GIVE ME SPORT reported this week, citing sources, that Manchester United are worried about PSG’s interest in Osimhen, with the French club emerging as the top contender to sign him.

PSG are in a strong position to meet his salary demands and the £63 million price tag. The report also suggests that Manchester United and Chelsea are most concerned about PSG in the potential race for Osimhen after his standout season.
