Osimhen saga drags on with intense Napoli and Galatasaray talks

Napoli and Galatasaray are trying to reach a breakthrough in the Victor Osimhen saga, as reasons emerge behind the problem over bank guarantees.

The Turkish team agreed to pay the full €75m asking price, even if it will not be a technical activation of the release clause, but rather a negotiation between the clubs.

The Partenopei were even prepared to let Galatasaray pay the sum over five instalments, as long as they had sufficient financial guarantees that the full figure would be paid.
