Osimhen to Join Galatasaray Soon as Napoli Finally Agree on Transfer Deal
There’s been a breakthrough in the ongoing transfer talks between Napoli and Galatasaray over Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen. Sports presenter Volkan Kılıç shared on Wednesday night that both clubs have finally reached an agreement, and the official announcement is expected before the weekend.
“A middle ground has been found in the Osimhen transfer. An agreement has been reached,” Kılıç posted on X. “I expect the Osimhen transfer to be announced by the weekend at the latest. Congratulations in advance.”
This marks a huge shift from just a week ago when Kılıç had reported that the deal was still uncertain due to Napoli’s financial demands. Back then, he explained that Galatasaray’s top official, Abdullah Kavukcu, was working hard behind the scenes to seal the deal. Napoli reportedly wanted most of the payment upfront along with extra financial guarantees.
At one point, Kılıç even claimed that Galatasaray were prepared to switch their focus to Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak if talks with Napoli collapsed. But with the latest agreement now in place, the Turkish club has no reason to explore that option anymore.
Former Manchester United player, Jesse Lingard, has revealed that he has mutually agreed to leave FC Seoul and his contract will end. It is reported that he will leave next week.
It can be noted that the footballer joined in February 2024 and has made 66 appearances since then, scoring 18 goals.
The player shared his experience on social media, saying “My time in South Korea has been unbelievable — the football, the atmosphere, and the passion around this club have been top class.”
“The love, support, and appreciation you have shown towards me over these last two years has been truly amazing. I’ll always be grateful for the opportunity to play for such a massive club.”
Former footballer, Rio Ferdinand compares Arsenal star player, Bukayo Saka, to Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.
When comparing players, he shared that: “When Saka is on it, he looks unplayable,” however he also stated that even with Salah’s stature, he is strong.
He has got the strength like Mohamed Salah. He is small in frame and size when you look at him, but do you ever see him get pushed off the ball?
“You don’t really see people take the ball off him or put him on his arse. He is a strong little guy.”
Former Chelsea player Frank Leboeuf speaks on recent league matches and names two clubs that can really challenge Arsenal this season, Manchester City and Chelsea.
During a recent interview when speaking about Arsenal, he shared “They are still the big favourites [for the title], but they will have to prove it. They lost four points against Sunderland and Chelsea. Manchester City are back, Chelsea are still there.”
“We will have the winter period, which will start very soon, so let’s see,” he said.
