BREAKING: Galatasaray are in talks to sign Victor Osimhen

Napoli is reportedly in negotiations to loan out striker Victor Osimhen to Galatasaray, as per reports from Italy, but a deal would likely require Napoli to share a portion of his wages.

Osimhen finds himself sidelined at Napoli following the collapse of transfer talks with Al-Ahli and Chelsea on deadline day.

The club’s director, Giovanni Manna, and coach, Antonio Conte, have both confirmed that the Nigerian forward will not be reintegrated into the squad, citing his initial request to leave as the reason.

While the transfer window has closed in Italy and most of Europe, some markets, such as Turkey, remain open, offering Osimhen a potential escape route.

According to Sky Sport Italia and Corriere dello Sport, Napoli is in discussions with Galatasaray about a loan deal for Osimhen.

However, it’s likely that Napoli would need to cover a significant portion of his €10 million annual salary. Another option on the table is for Galatasaray to take on the wages while paying no loan fee.

The Turkish transfer window remains open until September 13, giving both clubs ample time to reach an agreement. If a deal cannot be finalized, Osimhen faces the prospect of being left out of the squad for six months.

Meanwhile, RMC Sport in France reports that Osimhen has already agreed to the move, leaving the final decision in the hands of the two clubs.

Galatasaray is in urgent need of a new striker after former Inter Milan forward Mauro Icardi suffered a serious injury that will sideline him for at least a month.

Luis Campos reveals unexpected details about Victor Osimhen’s summer links to PSG

Luis Campos reveals unexpected details about Victor Osimhen's summer links to PSG

Paris Saint-Germain’s Sporting Director, Luís Campos, has debunked claims that the club made a formal offer for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, despite widespread rumors.

In an interview with Sport Italia correspondent Tancredi Palmeri, Campos clarified that PSG never placed a bid for the Nigerian forward.

Osimhen had been linked with several top clubs during the 2024 summer transfer window, and PSG was rumored to be among the interested parties.

However, Campos refuted those reports, emphasizing that the French Ligue 1 side did not make a move for the Super Eagles star.

When asked about the alleged last-minute approach from Napoli just before the transfer deadline, Campos simply remarked, “That’s the market,” underscoring the unpredictable nature of transfer dealings.

Victor Osimhen, who was recently honored with the 2023 CAF Men’s Player of the Year award in Morocco, also praised his former coach, Emmanuel Amunike, for his guidance throughout his career. Despite being linked to PSG, Osimhen’s future took a different turn.

Ultimately, the Nigerian striker secured a season-long loan move to Turkish giants Galatasaray, with the club covering 70% of his annual salary. Osimhen has already joined his new team and is eager to make an impact in the Turkish Super Lig.

Campos’ revelation may come as a surprise to many, given the heavy speculation surrounding Osimhen’s potential transfer. However, it appears that PSG never made a serious attempt to sign the Nigerian star.

This development further highlights the often unpredictable and fluid nature of transfer negotiations. While the rumor mill pointed to a potential move to Paris, Osimhen is now looking forward to a fresh chapter in Turkey, where he hopes to leave a lasting impression with Galatasaray.

Man City’s hearing for 115 Premier League charges to start on Monday (SEE ALL CHARGES)

Man City’s hearing for 115 Premier League charges to start on Monday (SEE ALL CHARGES)

The highly anticipated Premier League hearing regarding Manchester City’s 115 alleged breaches of financial fair play (FFP) regulations is set to commence on Monday, September 16.

Manchester City is accused of violating financial rules over a nine-year period from 2009 to 2018, during which the club twice edged out Liverpool for the Premier League title—in the 2013/14 and 2017/18 seasons.

The club has denied all charges, with manager Pep Guardiola previously expressing confidence in City’s innocence. Now, as reported by Sky Sports, both the Premier League and City’s legal teams will present their cases to an independent panel when the hearing begins.

Given the extensive list of allegations, the hearing is expected to last at least two months. While there is hope that a resolution will be reached by the end of this year, some speculate that the final verdict may not be announced until 2025, allowing the independent commission time to thoroughly review the evidence.

Potential Charges and Consequences

Should Manchester City be found guilty, the club could face severe penalties, including a potential points deduction. In more extreme cases, there is even the possibility of expulsion from the Premier League, though this outcome is considered unlikely. Another point of contention is whether the club could be stripped of the titles it won during the alleged period of rule-breaking.

The charges focus on over 100 alleged violations of financial fair play rules during the nine-year period, as well as City’s failure to cooperate with the Premier League’s investigation, which extended from 2018 until February 2023.

If the independent commission rules against Manchester City, the club is expected to appeal the decision, potentially prolonging the process further.

As this high-stakes case unfolds, it’s clear that the road to a final verdict will be anything but straightforward. Football fans will need to stay tuned for further developments.
