Victor Osimhen spent the entire transfer window weighing his options, trying to negotiate a move and leave his current club. He was linked with Chelsea, and it seemed like a deal was close to being finalized, with the Nigerian international heading to England. However, the deal fell through. Al Ahli then entered the picture, offering him an unprecedented salary (40 million euros per year), and once again, it seemed like Osimhen would leave southern Italy, with Napoli set to make a huge profit since the club from Jeddah was offering 65 million. Yet, nothing came of it. The deal collapsed due to the greed of Aurelio De Laurentiis, who, trying to squeeze out a few more million, asked Al Ahli for an additional five million. As a result, it was Ivan Toney, not Osimhen, who ended up heading to the Middle East.The biggest loser of the transfer window in EuropeNaturally, the Nigerian was furious about this. However, he might still leave Naples, as Galatasaray has reportedly stepped in as a potential suitor, entering negotiations with the club at the foot of Vesuvius and expressing a desire to bring the Nigerian on loan. According to transfer guru Gianluca Di Marzio, the player has given the green light to the operation and the Turkish club will pay his full wage from Naples (11 million euros per year) during the next season. Now it‘s up to Napoli and Galatasaray to define the details and final conditions of the operation and De Laurentiis seems to be keen this time to do the deal. Conte’s McNapoli! The Scottish midfield under VesuviusAntonio Conte has already brought in his favorite, Romelu Lukaku, and no one is thinking about Osimhen anymore, not even the Nigerian himself, as he just wants to leave as soon as possible, to anywhere. His number nine jersey has already been taken away, and he probably doesn’t want to waste a year of his career. As in the case of Mauro Icardi, Turkey could be his promised land.##NAJAVA_MECA_8304604##
