Osimhen Takes Center Stage in Turkey as He Joins Galatasaray on Loan

Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen has finally joined Galatasaray from Napoli on a season-long loan deal after failing to secure a permanent move during the summer transfer window.

The Nigeria international, 25, was frozen out of Antonio Conte’s squad over the summer after his moves to Chelsea and Al-Ahli broke down before the window closed.

In a statement on Wednesday, the Turkish club officially announced his arrival at the club for the 2024/25 season.

Galatasaray added that the striker “will be paid a net seasonal salary of 6,000,000 euros” for the move.

There will be no clause to sign permanently and there is an option for Osimhen to leave Galatasaray in the January transfer if a club activates his release clause, which has been reduced to €75m.

The forward will wear the No. 45 shirt with his new club.
