After a lengthy negotiation, the Turkish champions are nearing the end of their talks with Napoli.
Buruk affirmed that negotiations between the two teams are going well and that there are just a few small elements left to work out.
Galatasaray is reportedly willing to pay a total of €75 million, of which €40 million will be paid up front and the other €35 million will be due in 2026.
Osimhen is prohibited from rejoining Serie A for two years as part of the agreement, and Napoli will keep their 10% sell-on option.
After impressing on loan last season with 37 goals in 41 games across all competitions, which played a crucial role in Galatasaray’s domestic double win, Osimhen has already voiced his support.
Regarding Osimhen, everything is proceeding well. We’re almost finished. We want things resolved as quickly as possible,” Buruk stated in his remarks.
“The discussions with Napoli are also quite constructive, and the player’s side was already positive. We’re hoping for a quick conclusion. Our entire transfer strategy has concentrated around Osimhen.
“The way we distribute our substantial funding is really important. We’ll think about our next course of action after this deal is finalized.
A four-year deal is pending Osimhen’s signing, and he is anticipated to be in Istanbul soon for his official and medical unveiling.
After it is finished, Galatasaray is said to concentrate on completing their goalie purchase, and player departures may ensue to guarantee adherence to league rules.
On August 8, the Turkish team kicks off their domestic campaign. Ahead of them are UEFA Champions League qualifiers, where the team hopes Osimhen’s presence will be crucial.
