Napoli and Galatasaray finally have a full agreement in place for the sale of Nigeria international Victor Osimhen after his overwhelmingly successful loan spell in Istanbul during the 2024-25 season.
Galatasaray have been pushing to sign Osimhen on a permanent basis after his successful spell on loan last season, during which time he contributed with 37 goals and eight assists from 41 appearances across all competitions.
Despite Galatasaray agreeing to pay the full €75m release clause that had been valid in Osimhen’s contract in the first half of July, negotiations have dragged on for several weeks, with squabbles over the structure and installments involved in the deal and Napoli demanding official guarantees over the payment.
Football Italia understands that the deal is now finally done, and that Galatasaray will pay the full €75m transfer fee by the end of 2026.
Full breakdown of Napoli and Galatasaray deal for Osimhen
Of the €75m transfer fee, Napoli will receive €40m up front and will be paid the remaining €35m by the end of 2026.
The Partenopei will also be entitled to up to €5m in bonuses and will also retain a 10% sell-on clause.
Additionally, the deal will also include an ‘anti-Serie A clause’, preventing him from joining one of Napoli’s direct rivals for the next 24 months.
