As Football Italia already reported on Tuesday last week, Galatasaray still need to provide guarantees to convince the Partenopei to sell.

Having €75m available, in fact, is not enough for Gala. Napoli want the striker’s transfer fee to be paid in full, as well as coverage provided by a guarantee and a letter of credit.

Osimhen confident about Galatasaray transfer

Osimhen is confident and continues waiting for a positive end to negotiations between the two clubs as he wants to remain at Galatasaray after his latest prolific loan spell in Istanbul.

The Nigeria international has once again rejected approaches from intermediaries who continued pushing for a move to Al-Hilal. Osimhen already rejected a €30m-a-year offer from Simone Inzaghi’s side in June.
