Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has been subjected to recent transfer rumours as he is wanted by both Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich.

After a remarkable performance in Serie A this season, the 24-year-old Nigerian striker helped his team win their first Scudetto in 33 years by scoring 21 goals in 26 games.

His performance this season has drawn interest from PSG and Bayern Munich with the player at a crossroad on the team he would join.

Osimhen is expected to cost over €100m if he leaves Napoli in the summer with top clubs across Europe desperate to secure the striker’s signature.

Osimhen in a crossroad

According to Daniele Longo of Calciomercato.com, PSG and Bayern Munich are keen on getting Osimhen with the striker yet to decide which of the two he’d prefer to join.

However, the Nigerian striker has always loved the Bavarian giants and has placed them at the top of his list of teams he would love to join.

In France, they’re confident that Osimhen’s agent has already agreed personal terms with PSG, but the player has put the Ligue 1 outfit on hold as he waits for a move from Bayern.

Osimhen set to lift the trophy with Napoli

The 24-year-old has had a spectacular season with Napoli and are on the verge of lifting the trophy for the first time.

Napoli’s performance this season has been mostly down to Osimhen as he leads the goal-scoring chart in the Serie A.

With clubs trooping in for his signature, the most important thing for Osimhen now is winning and celebrating the Scudetto with Napoli as they are just one point away from being crowned champions.

The league leaders will travel to Udinese on Thursday and with a draw, they will be crowned champions and the trophy will be presented to them at home against Fiorentina.
