Galatasaray has found a sponsor to cover the 70% transfer fee to sign Victor Osimhen from Napoli on a permanent basis closer to reality.
According to Turkish outlet Milliyet, the Turkish champions, who are considering reducing the €75m fee to €70m due to the payments they have made, have met with two major companies operating in Turkey, one of which accepted the transfer fee in return for the club paying 30 percent.
It was stated that Napoli wanted €25 million in advance and the remaining amount in two instillments, so the club is looking for resources.
Galatasaray decided to move fast and use their trump card after Fenerbahce expressed their interest in the Nigeria striker through their coach Jose Mourinho. After initially heaving a sigh of relief when the player said, “I am very happy here,” they will now work to convince Napoli to sell`.

Fenerbahçe also tested the waters for the Osimhen transfer through agent Mirsad Türkcan, who has started negotiations to meet the player’s transfer fee and also knocked on the door of some organisations and received a positive response from a sponsor. It was learnt that Fenerbahçe never met with the player, but they are hoping to win the race for the player’s signature due to the good relationship between the club and Napoli during the Eljif Elmas transfer.
Osimhen will be a big investment, and whoever get him will have to pay a huge price. While the transfer fee is thought to be €75m, the player who currently earns €12m per year, including image rights, will receive €36m for three seasons.
Galatasaray President Dursun Özbek will try to complete Osimhen’s transfer with a three-man team consisting of himself, Kavukcu, and Buruk. They are expected to meet with George Gardi in Italy and exchange views on how to proceed with the transfer.
Osimhen has made a huge impact on Galatasaray since joining them in September, scoring eight goals and registering four assists in nine matches across all competitions.
