The Victor Osimhen saga is reportedly about to end. Insistently linked to Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea, the Nigerian striker from Napoli is finally very close to leaving the Italian club for a rather surprising destination.
The Victor Osimhen case, finally over? According to information from Italian journalists Fabrizio Romano et Gianluca DiMarziothe 2023 African Ballon d’Or winner is expected to sign with Turkish club Galatasaray. Shelved by the Neapolitan management after his failed transfer this summer, the 25-year-old could join the Turkish team on a one-season loan with no option to buy.
Victor Osimhen will play this season. Not registered in Serie A by Naples, the former LOSC player had to find a new place for the 2024/2025 season. Not sensitive to the interest of Saudi Arabia, the number 9 should finally join Turkey, where the transfer window is still open until September 13.
Galatasaray would agree to the idea of taking charge of the striker’s salary up to 10 million euros per year. This loan would allow Victor Osimhen to discover a new championship but above all not to stay in the closet for a whole season. He could form a duo with the former PSG player Mauro Icardi.
