Nigerian forward Victor Osimhen from the Italian football club Napoli has begun discussions regarding a transfer to Galatasaray, as reported on the official website of the Turkish club.
Galatasaray announced their plans to loan the 25-year-old striker and intends to officially confirm the deal soon.
This summer, Osimhen attempted to move to another club but was unable to come to an agreement for a transfer, prompting Napoli to leave him out of their season roster. At the end of August, he declined a transfer to London’s Chelsea.
Osimhen has been with Napoli since 2020, participating in 133 matches, scoring 76 goals, and providing 18 assists during this time.
