Overview

  • Galatasaray and Napoli finalized all paperwork this week, unlocking the final financial guarantees needed to complete the €75 million transfer.
  • The fee is structured with €40 million upfront, €35 million due by the end of 2026 and up to €5 million in performance-based bonuses.
  • A 10 percent sell-on clause and an anti–Serie A provision bar Osimhen from returning to Italy’s top flight for at least two years.
  • Osimhen arrived in Istanbul on July 30 and was greeted by thousands of fans at the airport ahead of his medical.
  • The 26-year-old striker scored 37 goals and provided eight assists in 41 appearances during his loan at Galatasaray, fueling the club’s push for a permanent signing.
