Italian club Napoli has rejected Galatasaray’s €65 million bid for a permanent transfer of Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen. Osimhen joined the Turkish club on loan for the season last September after failing to secure a move to Chelsea.
Napoli turned down the offer and demanded the full release clause of €75 million. Galatasaray wanted to keep Osimhen in the team but Napoli insisted on the full fee.
It was reported that Galatasaray could complete the transfer for €75 million for the Nigerian, who has been in top form. Other clubs would have to pay a compensation of six million euros in addition to the release fee.
Osimhen’s release clause was initially set at €130 million but was reduced last summer when he signed a new deal with Napoli before joining Galatasaray.
The Nigeria international has been in top form for the Turkish leaders, netting 16 goals and providing five assists in 20 appearances since his loan move.
