With the Turkish transfer window still open until September 13, Galatasaray has decided to make a splash by knocking on Napoli's door for Victor Osimhen. The two clubs are currently engaged in negotiations that could see the Nigerian striker move to the Turkish club on loan until the end of the season.
According to initial reports, Galatasaray is willing to cover the player's entire salary, around €10 million, thus relieving Napoli of a significant financial burden and potentially resolving a delicate situation for Antonio Conte and the Neapolitan management.

Contacts between the player's agent and the two clubs are constant and intense, with the Turkish club pushing to close the deal as soon as possible. Galatasaray's acceleration in the negotiations was dictated by Mauro Icardi's injury, which forced him to sit out until October.
The Turkish team, in fact, aims to reorganise the attack by lining up with a 3-5-2, and the fans are already dreaming of an attacking duo formed by osimhen and by former Inter player Icardi.
