Osimhen is almost back: Galatasaray close in on Super Eagles striker after Napoli agreement

Turkish champions Galatasaray are on the verge of securing a high-profile transfer for Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen from Napoli, with a verbal agreement already in place, according to renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano. 

The Turkish Super Lig giants are poised to finalise the deal, which could mark a significant coup for the club and an exciting new chapter for the Super Eagles star.

The transfer, described by Romano as “here we go soon,” includes a structured payment plan: an immediate €40 million, followed by €35 million payable in one year, and an additional €5 million in performance-based add-ons tied to Osimhen’s goal-scoring exploits. 

The agreement also features a 10% sell-on clause for any future profit and a clause prohibiting Osimhen’s transfer to another Italian club for the next two years.

Osimhen, widely regarded as one of Africa’s brightest talents, has been a standout performer for Napoli, where his lethal finishing and dynamic play earned him widespread acclaim. 

His potential move to Galatasaray signals a return to action following a period of uncertainty, with fans eagerly anticipating his impact in the Turkish Super Lig.

As negotiations advance and documents are finalised, excitement is building among Galatasaray supporters, who are ready to welcome the 26-year-old striker back to Rams Park. 

With the deal nearing completion, Osimhen’s comeback to competitive football in Istanbul is imminent, promising a thrilling boost for both club and player.
