The query now’s how lengthy Osimhen will keep at Galatasaray and really feel that Turkish love.
He has a 130m euro let go clause at Napoli, month there also are rumours of a crack clause, exterior in his mortgage at Galatasaray which might permit him to advance on in January.
He is still connected with a number of main Eu golf equipment, together with Tottenham, Galatasaray’s then warring parties within the Europa League on Thursday. For Osimhen, this is usually a probability to playground himself within the early Christmas buying groceries window.
In line with Bayazit, additionally it is a query of price range and squad steadiness for Galatasaray.
“If I was an accountant I would say, ‘don’t do it’,” he says when asked if Galatasaray will aim to keep the striker beyond his loan.
He suggests Napoli “will need 50m euros naked minimal” as a transfer fee. Galatasaray’s record signing is midfielder Gabriel Sara from Norwich last summer for 18m euros.
Bayazit also highlights the issue of TV rights in Turkish football. In the summer a new deal was struck with Bein Media for $182m a season. Before 2019-20, the Super Lig had a $500m yearly deal, but fluctuations in the Turkish lira saw the contract renegotiated, exterior.
“Galatasaray have Mauro Icardi, so they should spend that money on a different position to centre forward,” adds Bayazit. “One reason it was a really surprising move was that they have great strikers but no star wingers.
“Fans were very critical before Osimhen happened as there was no star winger. They are now happy, but as a puzzle piece fitting in, it doesn’t make sense.”
Unsurprisingly, Garcia Gomez kept his cards close to his chest when asked about Osimhen’s future.
“Hopefully this relationship remains,” he mentioned. “But we must be focused on the present.”
