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.

75 million is a big number for Galatasaray to spend even though Osimhen is a player they already know how to play during the loan period.
At most, Galatasaray can use Osimhen's services for about 3 seasons considering he is now 26 years old. That does not include injury.

The 75 million figure may be a little for Al Hilal because we know how this Saudi Pro league club is about their finances.
If Napoli with their coach still want Osimhen even though Osimhen is ok to continue his career in Turkey, I think staying at Napoli is better.

Everyone in Turkey is asking how Galatasaray, who will spend €75 million, will find the financial resources for this transfer. Even if they win the Turkish league, there's very little reward for success. No other Turkish team has such a large transfer budget. I'm sure they must have found a good sponsor to acquire the Nigerian striker. Football is booming in Turkey, and I've been discussing the possibility of Galatasaray finalizing this transfer with several wealthy businessmen. If it's meant to happen, this is the transfer that will happen, but if they can't secure Osimhen, such a large sum could put Galatasaray under a significant burden.
