Napoli have issued a firm deadline of Monday, July 21, 2025, for Galatasaray to finalize the paperwork required to complete the €75 million transfer of Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen.
According to Football Italia, both clubs have reached an agreement on key contractual terms, including the anti-Serie A clause and percentage-related conditions. However, Napoli are eager to conclude the deal swiftly and will not tolerate further delays.
Osimhen, who spent the 2024/25 season on loan at Galatasaray, delivered a sensational campaign, scoring 37 goals and registering eight assists in 41 appearances across all competitions. His outstanding performance has made him a top transfer priority for the Turkish champions.
Galatasaray have made multiple offers throughout the summer, with at least four bids previously rejected by Napoli. Now, with terms agreed, the Italian club expects Galatasaray to complete the transfer formalities within the next few days.
Under the agreed payment structure, Galatasaray will pay €40 million upfront, while the remaining €35 million will be settled in instalments by June 2026.
Napoli’s management believes the timeline gives the Turkish side ample opportunity to finalize the necessary documentation and comply with financial regulations.
If completed, the deal will mark one of the most expensive signings in Turkish football history and a major move for the Super Eagles forward, who has been linked with multiple top European clubs in recent seasons.Published by SpringnewsNG Media Limited
