The Argentine ace could be on his way out of the club in the summer.The Parisians might raid the market to get a replacement for the legendary Argentinian. PSG's interest in Napoli striker Victor Osimhen is well-documented. Italian sports agent Andrea D'Amico thinks the Nigerian could be a perfect replacement for the PSG no. 30.He told Radio 24 (via GOAL):“At the moment, Osimhen is the best striker in the world. Yes, even better than Haaland. He certainly won't lack of options, especially in England and Paris Saint-Germain, who could lose an important player up front. In my opinion, Messi will go to Miami. But that's just my opinion.”Apart from PSG, Osimhen has also been linked with a move to the Premier League with clubs like Manchester United and Chelsea being interested in him.
