Napoli striker Victor Osimhen is nearing a one-year loan move to Galatasaray in a surprising twist. After failing to secure a transfer to a top European club this summer, Osimhen has been excluded from Napoli’s squad under coach Antonio Conte, leaving him with limited options.
Football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports that Napoli and Galatasaray have reached an agreement for the loan deal. According to Romano, Galatasaray will cover Osimhen’s wages, and the final details are set to be confirmed soon.
Romano shared on X: “Galatasaray has reached an agreement in principle with Napoli for a loan deal involving Victor Osimhen. The loan is set for one year, with the salary covered by Galatasaray. The club’s delegation is expected to meet with Osimhen in Napoli shortly to finalize the move.”
This development marks a significant shift for Osimhen, who had been hoping for a transfer to a top European team but now faces a season with the Turkish giants.
