Galatasaray’s $85m windfall could be the game-changer in Osimhen transfer talks $85m windfall could be the game-changer in Osimhen transfer talks
As negotiations between Galatasaray and Napoli over Victor Osimhen continue to twist and turn, all eyes are now fixed on July 21 — a date that could redefine the entire transfer landscape.
According to Habertürk, Galatasaray is poised to receive over $85 million following a 150% capital increase, approved by the Capital Markets Board. This financial injection is expected to land in the club’s coffers by July 21, giving the Turkish giants the leverage they need to push the Osimhen deal over the line.
The transfer saga — which has stretched across weeks and multiple rejected proposals — may finally reach resolution as Galatasaray prepares to present stronger guarantees and more flexible payment terms to Napoli.
Beyond the capital boost, Galatasaray is also working to exit the Banks Union, a move that would grant the club greater freedom in sponsorship and credit negotiations — further strengthening its hand in the Osimhen pursuit.
With Napoli holding firm on a €75 million release clause and demanding upfront payments, Galatasaray’s incoming funds could be the key to unlocking the deal. The club’s ability to act decisively after July 21 may determine whether Osimhen remains in Italy or returns to Istanbul, where he scored 37 goals in 41 matches last season.
