Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, is poised to join defending Turkish SuperLig champions, Galatasaray, on a season-long loan. The 25-year-old has given his consent to the transfer, but negotiations are still ongoing as he seeks to include specific clauses in the contract.

According to Italian Journalist and Transfer market guru Fabrizio Romano, Osimhen has requested a break clause that would allow him to leave Galatasaray in January if a top European club comes calling. Additionally, he wants Napoli to reduce his release clause from €130m to €75m, making him a more attractive prospect for potential suitors.

Galatasaray, eager to wrap up the deal, have arranged for a flight to take Osimhen to Istanbul tonight. Despite the Turkish transfer window remaining open until next week, the club is keen to finalize the transfer as soon as possible.

The addition of Osimhen would be a significant coup for Galatasaray, who are looking to maintain their dominance in the SüperLig. With Mauro Icardi already on board, the pairing of the Argentine striker with Osimhen could prove deadly. Galatasaray's ambition is clear, and the capture of Osimhen would be a statement of intent as they seek to win their third consecutive league title.

As the deal nears completion, Osimhen's future looks set to take a new turn. The Nigerian forward, once a prized asset for Napoli, will now have the opportunity to shine in the Süper Lig and potentially attract the attention of top European clubs.
