More on Osimhen's future...

Galatasaray isn't keen on paying 75 million euros straightaway. They are trying to find a middle way. But Napoli is determined not to drop from this level even a bit.

Osimhen is already okay with continuing at the Turkish team because of Champions League football especially. Al-Hilal can remain keen but they aren't his first choice which is quite natural. He wants to stay in Europe and already turned down insane offers from them.

It means neither of them will get Osimhen.

Where are Premier League teams? they can afford Osimhen and Osimhen definitely will want to play on there.

Arsenal wants Gyokeres.
Manchester United wants Mbeumo.
Chelsea already sign Joao Pedro.
Aston Villa trying to sign Vlahovic.

Liverpool is the only team that make sense to sign him, they have many good players except the striker.

On the surface, Liverpool seem the “logical” fit for Osimhen, but these days, transfers are complicated. The PL clubs have shifted from “get the shiniest toy” to “maximize every penny and minute on the pitch”. That is why Arsenal are picking Gyökeres: he gives them more pressing, more progressive carries, and maybe even more assists than Osimhen, but for a fraction of the hassle. Chelsea is going young, aiming to sell players on later rather than cashing out on a 26-year-old whose resale is limited. United? They are spinning the wheel. If Osimhen move to Gala collapses, they might swoop at the last minute

The Osimhen story actually shows how even a world-class striker can be a victim of timing, contracts, and regulation-driven hesitation in England. In another era, he would already be holding up a Liverpool shirt. Now? He is stuck between a Turkish sponsor pool and Napoli ironclad release clause. If you want drama, keep an eye on the last week of the window. Someone always panics and overpays!
