Victor Osimhen is set to join Galatasaray on a season-long loan after negotiations with Napoli reached an agreement. Despite interest from Chelsea and Al-Ahli, both deals collapsed, leaving Osimhen sidelined and stripped of his number 9 shirt at Napoli. The loan deal includes a break clause in January and Galatasaray covering his full salary, but there is no option or obligation to buy. Galatasaray's vice president and director of football flew to Italy to finalize the deal, and Osimhen is expected to travel to Istanbul soon. This move offers Osimhen the opportunity to play in the Europa League and reunite with former Napoli teammate Dries Mertens.
