Galatasaray launch bid for Victor Osimhen! Turkish giants agree personal terms with Al-Hilal target but remain short of Napoli's asking price

<p>Gala have started the process to bring Osimhen back to Istanbul after he scored 37 goals across all competitions in 2024-25, presenting a €55 million ($64m) offer to Napoli, according to <a href="https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1942236593609203888" target="_blank"><em>Fabrizio Romano</em></a>. Only €5m ($5.9m) of that amount isn't guaranteed, but Napoli still "want more".</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Romano adds that Osimhen is "keen" on that move, but completion will ultimately hinge on the clubs reaching an agreement. In contrast, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/al-hilal-victor-osimhen-pursuit-relaunched-saudi-giants-convince-napoli-wantaway-lucrative-transfer/bltcf76353d86b495c0" target="_blank">Saudi Arabia's Al-Hilal</a> are willing to pay the required €75m ($88m) release clause, but crucially don't have an agreement wi the player himself.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Osimhen's contract at Napoli, signed last September, has already entered its final year. Hypothetically, he could become a free agent next summer and have complete control over his future.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Osimhen has no place back at Napoli, where he has been replaced by Antonio Conte favourite Romelu Lukaku. If the Nigerian is dead set on joining Galatasaray and no one else, the Serie A champions may have to consider compromising on their asking price in order to offload him this summer and avoid a situation where he can move on next year without bringing any money back into the club. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/victor-osimhen-man-utd-arsenal-break-bank-striker-premier-league-dream-come-true/bltc648570dbe4f043a" target="_blank">England's biggest sides have generally steered clear of Osimhen</a>, despite his availability and goal record.</p>
