Osimhen set for permanent Galatasaray move

According to Fabrizio Romano, Galatasaray have reached a full agreement with Napoli over the proposed transfer of Victor Osimhen.

The services of the Nigerian striker will cost the Turkish Super Lig side a fixed fee of €75million, of which they’ll pay €40million immediately, and the remaining €35million in 12 months. There will also be goalscoring-related bonus, a 10% clause relating to any profits from future sales, and Galatasaray cannot sell Osimhen to any Italian club within the next two years.

Osimhen had a fantastic 2024/25 season on loan with Galatasaray, scoring 37 goals and contributing eight assists in 41 matches across all competitions. It’s therefore quite understandable that they wanted him in their ranks permanently, but the path up to this point has been anything but straightforward, with the likes of Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United and other top clubs continuously credited with interest by the media.

Nonetheless, it seems Galatasaray have finally managed to get their man.
