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.

Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal has shared his thoughts after officially taking over the iconic number 10 jersey, once worn by club legend Lionel Messi. The young Spanish star made the remarks on Wednesday following the signing of a new long-term contract that ties him to the club until 2031.

During a special presentation led by club president Joan Laporta, Yamal expressed his pride in carrying on a legacy worn by greats like Messi, Ronaldinho, and Maradona.

“Messi laid the foundation with this shirt,” he said. “Now it’s my time. Every kid dreams of having something from players like Messi and Ronaldinho. I’ll do my best to keep that legacy going.” He also made it clear that he’s not feeling any pressure. “It’s just a new number,” he said, “but my goal remains the same.”

Nigeria’s Ademola Lookman is eyeing a move to Inter Milan, with fresh talks held between the Italian club and his representatives on Wednesday night, according to Fabrizio Romano. The Atalanta forward has already informed his current club of his desire to leave this summer.

Inter are expected to make their opening offer soon, but Atalanta are standing firm, valuing the player at over €40 million for Italian clubs. In a separate move, Juventus and FC Porto also held discussions on Wednesday about Francisco Conceição’s transfer.

Porto has granted Juve additional time to finalize the paperwork. The agreement between both clubs has been in place since Tuesday, with the deal expected to cost more than €30 million over four years. As part of the arrangement, the Portuguese winger is set to sign documents waiving his 20% stake.
