Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) sporting director Luis Campos has set the record straight regarding the club’s rumored interest in Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen. In an interview with Sportitalia, Campos confirmed that while Osimhen was on their radar, the club never made an official bid for the Napoli star.
Osimhen Was Considered but No Bid Was Made
Luis Campos admitted that Victor Osimhen, who had a stellar season with Napoli, was one of the players PSG considered. However, he quickly clarified that the club did not move forward with any formal offer for the Nigerian striker.
“Osimhen was considered as one of the options but we never sent any bid,” Campos said. This statement puts to rest any speculation linking Osimhen to the Ligue 1 champions during the recent transfer window.

According to Campos, PSG is more than satisfied with the strikers they secured this summer, emphasizing the club’s confidence in their new signings.
*“We were very satisfied with Gonçalo Ramos, Kolo Muani, and Marcos Asensio,”* he told *Sportitalia*. These players have already begun integrating into PSG’s squad, each bringing their unique qualities to strengthen the team’s attacking lineup.

As Luis Campos made clear, the club’s transfer strategy was thoughtful, and no formal approach was made for Osimhen.
