Osimhen favors Galatasaray move as Napoli demands full release fee

Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has picked his next team. The star player wants to join Turkish giants Galatasaray after turning down massive money from Saudi Arabia. Al-Hilal offered him 40 million euros every year but he said no. He prefers playing in Europe and keeping his current 12 million euro salary. Galatasaray stepped up with a 16 million euro annual deal that caught his attention.

Napoli creates problems for the move though. The Italian club demands the full 75 million euro release clause amount. Galatasaray has only offered between 50 and 60 million euros for the striker. This gap makes talks very difficult between both teams. Napoli refuses to accept less money for their prized player.

Galatasaray fans back the signing and sponsors might help fund the deal. The Turkish club believes they can convince Osimhen to make the switch. He already showed interest after his holiday in Nigeria. His agent continues working on the transfer details. The player seems ready to commit to the move.

Napoli must decide what happens next with their striker situation. They could keep Osimhen or find someone else to play alongside Lukaku. The club looks at Darwin Nunez, Lorenzo Luka, and Nicolas Jackson as possible targets. These players could fill the gap if Osimhen leaves. The Italian team wants to strengthen their attack for the upcoming season.
