PSG injury potentially disastrous news for Chelsea but music to Napoli’s ears



Goncalo Ramos picked up an injury during PSG’s game against Le Harve on Friday night.

The result, which saw the Parisians run out convincing 4-1 winners, was marred by Ramos’ unfortunate injury.

The 23-year-old collided with defender Etienne Kinkoue at the 20-minute mark and, after being supported off the pitch by PSG’s medical team, was replaced by Randal Kolo Muani.

Luis Enrique reveals severity of Goncalo Ramos injury

Discussing the severity of Ramos’ injury after the full-time whistle, manager Luis Enrique admitted the striker’s recent setback could be ‘quite serious’.

“I’m not a doctor but I think the injury is quite serious,” he told reporters.

Goncalo Ramos picked up an injury against Le Harve.

“I don’t know how many weeks he will be out, but it is certainly something serious.”

PSG expected to reignite Victor Osimhen interest

Consequently, with Ramos facing a prolonged period on the sidelines, Calciomercato believe there is now a chance PSG could reignite their long-standing interest in Napoli’s Victor Osimhen.

The Nigerian has been one of the summer’s biggest transfer sagas. Despite agreeing personal terms with the Ligue 1 giants earlier in the window, a move failed to materialise due to the club’s gap in valuation.

PSG and Chelsea are set to continue their battle to sign Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.

Chelsea have since taken advantage of PSG’s failings, and remain locked in talks to land the prolific African. A deal is far from straightforward though — a lot depends on Romelu Lukaku moving the other way — a crucial part of the merry-go-round that has yet to be agreed.



However, the Blues’ chances of signing Osimhen could be dealt a major blow. Ramos’ injury is expected to push PSG back in the market for a replacement number nine, and given their desperation, could force them to meet Napoli’s price demands.

For Chelsea to land Osimhen; the longer the saga goes on, the less confident they will feel about signing the 25-year-old, and now set to face strong competition again from PSG, Todd Boehly must step up his efforts or risk undoing all his previous hard work.
