Napoli reject fresh ₦98 billion bid for Osimhen

Napoli have reportedly rejected Galatasaray's offer for Victor Osimhen after Cim Bom reached an agreement with the Nigerian striker on personal terms. 

According to a report from Sky Sports Italy, the Partenopei hierarchy have rejected a £47.3 million bid from Galatasaray for Osimhen. 

The Turkish champions have underlined Osimhen as their key transfer target for the summer and have been in conversations with Napoli for a permanent transfer. 

Pulse Sports reported that they sent a bid to the Italian champions, and per a recent update, the four times Scudetto winners have rebuffed the offer. 

After weeks of attempting to convince the Nigerian striker to stay at the club following a successful loan spell, Galatasaray have finally reached an agreement on personal terms. 

As earlier reported, the Lions offered an annual salary of €16 million and have handed the Nigerian a three-year deal, contingent on reaching an agreement with Napoli on a transfer fee. 

The Naples-based club are insisting on Osimhen's €75 million release clause, a figure far from Galatasaray’s latest bid. However, Al Hilal, which are also pushing to sign the Nigerian, have informed Napoli that they had no problem matching the fee.
