Nigerian forward Victor Osimhen is exploring the possibility of joining Galatasaray, as the Turkish transfer window remains open for another 11 days.
According to Fabrice Hawkins, negotiations between Galatasaray and Napoli have begun, signaling a potential new chapter for the striker.
Osimhen had been expected to leave Napoli this summer, with Al-Ahli Saudi FC and Chelsea FC emerging as his primary suitors.
However, a deal could not be finalized with either club. Chelsea’s pursuit ended when the transfer window closed without a resolution, while Al-Ahli’s interest waned after they acquired Brentford FC’s Ivan Toney.

This left Osimhen in a difficult position, facing a season with a Napoli side he no longer wishes to represent. Reports suggest that Osimhen is open to a loan move to Galatasaray, who are now seen as a viable option to provide him with a new home.
The potential transfer to Galatasaray could offer Osimhen a fresh start and a chance to showcase his talents in the Turkish league.
As negotiations continue, the possibility of a loan deal remains a strong consideration, reflecting the urgency of resolving his unsettled situation at Napoli.
