Napoli are reportedly digging in their heels against Turkish giants Galatasaray, who remain determined to lure the Super Eagles striker to Istanbul.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"402\" data-end=\"797\">Multiple reports indicate that Napoli have now turned down a third approach from Galatasaray. While the Turkish club is keen to activate Osimhen\u2019s \u20ac75 million release clause, their proposed payment terms appear to be the sticking point. Sources familiar with negotiations say Galatasaray intend to split the fee into instalments over an extended period \u2014 a structure Napoli have firmly rejected.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"799\" data-end=\"1073\">Meanwhile, the Serie A champions are said to be favouring an outright payment deal that would immediately boost their finances. Top transfer insiders Gianluca Di Marzio and Nicolo Schira confirm that Napoli are demanding robust bank guarantees before giving any green light.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1075\" data-end=\"1272\">In a fresh twist, insiders within Osimhen\u2019s camp have alleged that Napoli may be trying to redirect the striker\u2019s future towards Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal, a move he is reportedly hesitant about.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1274\" data-end=\"1483\">Nigerian journalist Buchi Laba, who has closely monitored the saga, noted that while Galatasaray remain persistent, Napoli\u2019s tough stance and financial demands continue to complicate the player\u2019s next chapter.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h1 data-start=\"1274\" data-end=\"1483\"><strong>Read also: <a href=\"https:\/\/africatodaynewsnewyork.com\/2024\/04\/11\/osimhen-chelsea-left-out-as-psg-napoli-nearing-e120m-deal\/\">Osimhen: Chelsea Left Out As PSG, Napoli Nears \u20ac120m Deal<\/a><\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Laba suggested that Napoli\u2019s reluctance stems from their preference for Al Hilal\u2019s bid, which offers the full \u20ac75 million upfront.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re frustrating the deal intentionally and want to push him to Saudi Arabia (Al Hilal),\u201d Laba alleged.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the financial appeal of the Saudi offer, Osimhen is said to be firmly against it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVictor Osimhen has made it very clear that going to Al Hilal is not possible. He only wants Galatasaray,\u201d Laba added.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"166\" data-end=\"398\">The deadlock between Victor Osimhen and Napoli appears far from resolution, with reports from transfer expert Edu Laba indicating that the striker remains adamant about leaving the club, despite his contract running until June 2026.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"400\" data-end=\"544\">According to Laba, Osimhen has firmly informed Napoli that he will not show up for pre-season training and has no desire to play for them again.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"546\" data-end=\"836\">Complicating matters further is the looming expiration of his \u20ac75 million release clause, set to lapse on Tuesday, July 15. Should no agreement be reached before the deadline, Napoli would regain full control over his valuation, a scenario that could drag out the transfer saga even longer.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/africatodaynewsnewyork.com\/\">Africa Today News, New York<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amid rising tensions over his future, Victor Osimhen\u2019s potential transfer has hit a new snag.
