The transfer saga surrounding Victor Osimhen continues to stall, as Napoli reportedly insists on a 20% sell-on clause in their €75 million deal with Galatasaray.
Although Galatasaray has agreed to match Napoli’s asking price, both clubs remain locked in a disagreement over the payment structure. The Turkish champions proposed €40 million upfront and €35 million in installments — a plan Napoli rejected.
Transfer experts say Napoli now demands the full €35 million by the end of 2026, along with a sizable 20% cut from any future sale — a steep figure given Osimhen’s impressive record. The Nigerian striker had a standout season at Galatasaray on loan, netting 37 goals and delivering eight assists across 41 appearances.
Napoli, meanwhile, has made unsuccessful attempts to push Osimhen toward a move to Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia — an option the player refuses to entertain.
