Victor Osimhen has travelled to Turkey to complete his permanent transfer to Galatasaray from Napoli FC.
The 26-year-old striker is on board a private jet en route to Istanbul, Turkey’s capital.
According to Galatasaray, the club will host a live broadcast tracking Osimhen’s flight into the country on its YouTube page.
Galatasaray have agreed a €75 million deal with Napoli to sign the Nigerian striker permanently.
The deal, once completed, will break the Turkish transfer record.
Napoli will receive €40m immediately and the additional €35m over the next year. The deal also includes restrictions on Osimhen joining Serie A clubs for two years.
Osimhen was on loan at Galatasaray for the 2024/25 season. He scored 37 goals and provided eight assists in 41 matches across all competitions as the club won both league and cup double.
The transfer will put an end to a two-year saga that saw the Lagos-born star frozen out of Napoli’s squad at the beginning of last season.
