Recent reports indicate that Napoli has turned down Galatasaray`s latest bid for Victor Osimhen. The offer, valued at €70 million to be paid in five installments, fell short of Napoli`s expectations of €75 million in two payments.
Despite the passing of the release clause deadline, negotiations continue. Napoli remains open to accepting €75 million with some flexibility on payment terms, but not under the conditions proposed by Galatasaray.
Napoli Unwavering on €75M Minimum for Osimhen
Multiple sources, including Fabrizio Romano and Gianluca Di Marzio of Sky Sport Italia, report that Napoli rejected the offer due to two primary concerns. First, the total amount falls €5 million short of their valuation. Second, the proposed five-installment payment plan is not acceptable to the Italian club.
Napoli prefers the transfer fee to be paid in two installments. While Galatasaray has offered to provide necessary financial guarantees, Napoli insists on a thorough review of all documentation by their legal team before proceeding.
As negotiations progress, it`s clear that Napoli will not compromise on their €75 million valuation for the Nigerian striker. The club remains patient and willing to explore payment structures that meet their financial requirements.
