We now know the cut-price Napoli will accept for striker Victor Osimhen this summer.

He was targeted by Chelsea and the Paris Saint-Germain especially during the last two transfer windows. However, he found himself in the Super Lig with Galatasaray. Since signing, Osimhen has provided 4 goals and 3 assists in 7 games this season.

Despite renewed interest from big clubs in his signature once his loan spell ends, he could ultimately stay at Instanbul. The leaders of the Yellow and Red are launching an offensive to obtain the permanent transfer of the Nigerian star. With a budget of 50 million eurosthe president Dursun Ozbek is aiming for a major acquisition.

Due to additional revenue in the Champions Leaguethe club also benefits from financial support from the part of its sponsors for this transfer. the Objective: seal the deal before rival clubs like Chelsea.

But there is still hope for the other clubs who follow him. It was once thought that Osimhen’s release clause was set at 130 millions. Today, La Gazzetta dello Sport discovered that a price has been set for this summer. The Nigerian could leave the club for a sum of around 75 millions, a much more affordable price for PSG and Chelsea.

Osimhen joined Galatasaray on free loan in September 2024, with a net salary of €6 million per year. He said he wanted to stay at Galatasaray until the end of the season. “Here I am happy,” he said. “It’s a big family and I’m happy with my decision.”

In July 2023, PSG had offered €130 millionan offer rejected by Naples owner Aurelio De Laurentiis. From Napoli’s point of view, letting Osimhen leave at the cost of a big loss is far from ideal. But their hand was forced by the player, when he refused to play for the club this season.
