Napoli is successfully fooling Galatasaray with this transfer. You only mention €80M transfer fees, but forget 10% cut for the future sales of Osimhen, and a clause not sale him to the italian clubs for two years.

This news is really disheartening for all of Galatasaray fans. Their club totally outplayed by ADL in this transfer. They pay the same amount like when Napoli bought him five years ago.
It seems that not only Galatasaray were fooled by Napoli in the matter of signing Osimhen, but this also impacted the player himself. A player of his caliber who had the opportunity to succeed at a much bigger club ultimately had to stay at Galatasaray.
Napoli truly exploited the conditions for Osimhen's signing so they wouldn't lose out by letting him go.
If this news is true then I don't think Osimhen will achieve his best career in Europe because playing in a club that doesn't offer big trophies will make his name sink even further in the next few seasons, this is really a big loss because Osimhen has the potential to be a good striker in Europe.
I can't help but wonder why no other European club decided to spend money for Osimhen: is it because the way it ended with Napoli? Is it because he was asking for too much money? Is it a problem with his agents? He's a great striker, he has the same age of Gyökeres and yet it looks like European football forgot about him, it's kind of weird, there must be some problem somewhere, I just wonder what it is.
With Galatasaray's transfer to Napoli completed, with various conditions attached, we can conclude why other European teams haven't been as aggressive in signing Osimhen. Napoli had indeed imposed strict conditions. In addition to a 10% cut, they also had an anti-Serie A condition the player could not be sold to Serie A for two years. Naturally, these conditions prevented other elite clubs from acquiring Osimhen from Napoli.

In the end, only Galatasaray managed to sign Osimhen from Napoli permanently, and they undoubtedly considered their decision carefully, especially considering his impressive performances last season and his undoubted potential as a striker, especially when it comes to scoring goals. These considerations ultimately led to their decision, and Osimhen's future is now clear after complex negotiations between the two teams.
