Super Eagles Striker, Victor Osimhen will undergo a medical with Galatasaray today as part of his €75million move from Napoli.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the Nigerian international arrived in Istanbul on Wednesday for the medical examination, revealing that all documents relating to the deal have been countersigned.

Osimhen spent last season on loan at Galatasaray, scoring 37 goals and providing eight assists in 41 appearances across all competitions.

The 26-year-old Super Eagles player also rejected lucrative offers from Saudi club Al-Hilal to join Okan Buruk’s side.

Galatasaray has agreed to activate the €75m release clause in Osimhen’s contract to seal the deal.

The Yellow and Reds will pay €40m upfront, with the remaining €35m due by the end of 2026.

Napoli is entitled to up to €5m in bonuses and retains a 10% sell-on clause.

Additionally, there is an anti-Serie A clause included, preventing Osimhen from joining one of their competitors within the next two years.
