Napoli have finally completed the sale of Victor Osimhen to Galatasaray for a fee of €75m, with 10 per cent of profit from the sell-on fee going to the Partenopei and a salary reaching €21m per season.
The saga had been dragging on for weeks, with the player determined to remain in Istanbul after a successful loan spell last season.
This saw him turn down far more lucrative proposals from Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal and push Napoli to accept different terms.
He flew in for a medical on Wednesday.
How much Osimhen cost Galatasaray
The €75m release clause expired, so this is not activating that, but still paying the full €75m sum.
It is reported this will be spread out between €40m now and a further €35m by the end of the 2025-26 season.
A formal statement from Galatasaray confirms they are paying €75m and that 10 per cent of the profit from a future sale will go to Napoli.
This would appear to be only 10 per cent of the profit and not 10 per cent of the full sell-on fee.
Osimhen has signed a four-year contract that is worth a confirmed €15m per season net salary, plus a loyalty bonus of €1m and an image rights fee of €5m.
Napoli had purchased Osimhen from LOSC for a fee that was calculated to be worth €78.9m including cash and player exchanges.
There is a reason why none of the big clubs chased him and I think we all know it. Well done Napoli for offloading the problem and still getting top price.
Ur greedy owner frustrated the big clubs. He only wanted to sell him to Saudi Arabia who were willing to pay above the premium price. But thank God the young Man stood his ground. Anywhere the boy goes he will remain a champion.
@gladly seraph duh, any clubs in the world would prefer selling their players to the biggest offers. Don’t blame Napoli preferring SA offer with tons of money.
@gladly seraph, you are delusional. The offers didn’t come from the big clube because despite the talent, the attitide made him too big a risk.
Comes what may it’s will end well with Napoli owner and the group of people that wish to ruin Victor’s image and career, if Victor should be White player can those idiots maltreated him like that and still want his loyalty?,what happened between Victor and his Country is nobody’s business and he shouldn’t be treated like an nobody, wether enemies like it or not , God’s will is prevailing.
