His agent, Roberto Calenda, is said to be finalising his deal with the Parisians, which could be completed in 48 hours.
Earlier reports claim Napoli agreed with Al Ahli on a sumptuous deal, but the former Lille striker is unwilling to move to Saudi Arabia.
It was also gathered that English clubs Manchester United and Chelsea could not meet his €120 million release clause.
Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis has insisted on a cash-only transaction after some teams offered a possible player-swap plus cash deal.
Soccernet reports that although the specifics of the agreement between the two clubs remain unclear, PSG are offering an attractive salary of €14 million per year, approximately 24 billion naira annually.
Napoli manager Antonio Conte appears unfazed by the Nigerian striker’s impending departure.

Briefly News earlier reported that Victor Osimhen’s way out of Napoli could be the English Premier League club Chelsea, which are reportedly set to return for talks over the transfer of the striker to England.
Osimhen could have left Estadio Diego Armando Maradona in the summer of 2023 after helping the club win their first title in 33 years but signed a contract extension.
