Victor Osimhen, Turkish things: there’s Galatasaray

The Words of Osimhen

Victor Osimhen could move on loan to Galatasaray. Napoli's estranged Nigerian striker would appear to have struck a deal with the Istanbul-based Giallorossi club, which is on the hunt for a heavyweight striker after Mauro Icardi è injured.

Osimhen, ruled out by Antonio Conte from the list for Serie A, could move to Turkey on a one-year dry loan, with his salary fully paid by his new club. It is also a bargain for Napoli, which will then calmly reassess the situation in a year’s time.

"Victor no longer wants to stay and play absolutely at Napoli – had explained the Azzurri ds Giovanni Manna on Sunday to DAZN -. We have tried to humor him but the market has been complicated. We keep our line of consistency. He wants to leave and we have made other choices by making important investments to get Lukaku and keep Raspadori and Simeone".
