Kylian Mbappé has officially announced his departure, prompting PSG to search for a top-tier attacking profile to replace their French star. The Parisian club has already shortlisted three names: Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Viktor Gyökeres, and Victor Osimhen.
“I wanted to announce to everyone that this is my last year at Paris Saint-Germain. I will not be extending my stay and will be ending my journey in a few weeks,” Kylian Mbappé declared on Friday evening through a video posted on his social media, thus formalizing his exit from PSG this summer. This major loss in the offensive department means that PSG’s management will need to find a replacement during the transfer window.
Kvaratskhelia, PSG’s top option
Le Parisien confirms recent trends that Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (23 years old) is the absolute priority for PSG’s management to succeed Mbappé next season. However, Napoli does not seem very open to selling their Georgian phenomenon…
Gyökeres and Osimhen targeted as forwards
If PSG cannot secure Kvaratskhelia, Le Parisien reports that two other profiles, pure strikers this time, are considered: Viktor Gyökeres (25 years old, Sporting Lisbon) and another Napoli player, Victor Osimhen (25 years old). However, the latter is valued between 100 and 130 million euros by his club. PSG is thus warned that a significant investment will be required to replace Kylian Mbappé.
