𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋: Galatasaray have announced the signing of 25-year-old Victor Osimhen from Napoli

Galatasaray have made a significant move by announcing the loan signing of Victor Osimhen from Napoli. This strategic acquisition marks a new chapter for the Turkish club, as they confirm the loan signing of Osimhen without paying a fee to the Serie A club, while agreeing to a substantial salary of €6m-per-season (£5m/$6.6m) for the talented player.

Prior to his move to Galatasaray, Osimhen extended his stay in Naples by signing a new contract that secured his position at Napoli until June 30, 2027. The official statement released by Napoli stated, “SSC Napoli announces that it has temporarily transferred the sporting performances of the footballer Victor Osimhen to Galatasaray until 30 June 2025. At the same time, the Club has reached an agreement with the player for an option, in its favour, to renew the contract until June 30, 2027.”

This transfer comes after Osimhen encountered a challenging period, being excluded from the first-team squad by Antonio Conte following a failed transfer to Saudi Pro League club Al-Ahli on the deadline day. However, with this new opportunity at Galatasaray, the Nigerian striker is poised to make his mark as he prepares to participate in the first match of the 2024-25 campaign on September 14. All eyes will be on Osimhen as he takes to the field to represent Galatasaray in a highly anticipated Turkish top-division clash against Rizespor. This move sets the stage for an exciting journey for Osimhen and Galatasaray as they aim for success in the upcoming season.
