Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has reportedly parted ways with his agent, Roberto Calenda, amidst ongoing transfer drama, as reported by *Il Mattino* (via *TMW*).

Osimhen is said to be frustrated with Calenda’s handling of recent negotiations, particularly his attempts to secure a permanent transfer away from the Serie A champions.

Sources suggest the Nigerian forward was displeased with how things were managed, prompting his decision to sack the agent.

In a surprising move, Osimhen reportedly took matters into his own hands during negotiations for a potential loan deal to Turkish club Galatasaray.

It is believed that the player worked independently, without an agent, to negotiate the terms of the loan.

Despite this, the 24-year-old was previously linked with a transfer on deadline day, with clubs like Al Ahli and Chelsea expressing interest in signing him.

However, none of the deals materialised, leading to heavy criticism of Calenda on social media for his failure to secure the move.

In the aftermath of the failed deals, Osimhen is understood to have enlisted the help of Turkish intermediary George Gardi to facilitate his loan move to Galatasaray.

The loan arrangement is reported to last until the end of the current season, with a January break clause that would allow the forward to transfer to a top European club should offers be made during the winter transfer window.

Osimhen’s decision to change representation during such a pivotal moment in his career signals his dissatisfaction with the handling of his transfer saga, and it remains to be seen what his future holds at Napoli or elsewhere.
