After the mess with Chelsea on Deadline Day, VICTOR OSIMHEN set up his loan move to Galatasaray without the help of his agent.
But a strange clause is said to have been added to the Nigerian player’s season-long move to Turkey, which means he could leave in January.
The 25-year-old arrived in Istanbul early Tuesday morning to fans waving flares before his medical.
The striker was strongly linked with a move to Chelsea all summer, but the Blues were not able to lock down the deal.
Galatasaray will sign Osimhen to a one-year deal, but new sources say that his loan contract has a special clause.
A Turkish news site called A Spor says that Osimhen has asked for a break clause in his contract that lets 10 teams out.
Because of this, he will be able to leave if any of the unknown teams make an offer in January.
But Turkish reporter Kagan Dursun said that Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Bayern Munich are all on his list of teams he wants to play for.
Football Italia also thinks that Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain are on the list.
As Osimhen wants to leave Napoli for good, he has also asked that his release price be lowered from £109 million to £63 million.
After Antonio Conte left him off of his 2024–25 group list, he went on loan to another team.
Romelu Lukaku was bought by Napoli from Chelsea for £38 million earlier this week.
The Belgian forward scored on his first game for Napoli, which helped them come back from behind to beat Parma, who had just been promoted.
He made 26 goals in the league for Napoli in 2022–23, which was their first title in 33 years.
He also scored 15 goals last season, but the club had a terrible season.
They came in 10th place and didn’t make it to Europe at all.
At the same time, things have hit a breaking point between Osimhen and his agent Roberto Calenda after a rough summer.
Because of this, the scorer took care of his loan move to Turkey this past weekend.
