Nigeria’s Victor Osimhen returns to Galatasaray on a permanent deal after a long-drawn-out transfer between Napoli and the Turkish Champions.
Osimhen was on loan to Galatasaray last season, helping the club to win the Turkish league and cup double.
The Super Eagles striker netted 37 goals in 41 games for Galatsaray during his loan spell.

- In addition, 10% of the profit from the player’s subsequent sale will be paid to SSCN Napoli SPA as part of the agreement.
- A four-year contract starting from the 2025-2026 season.
- According to the agreement, the player will receive a net guaranteed salary of €15,000,000 per season, a net loyalty bonus of €1,000,000, and an image rights fee of €5,000,000.

The €75,000,000 transfer is a Turkish record and €55.5m higher than his closest rival, El Nesry.
Moroccan El Nesry achieved the feat in the 2024/2025 season for €19.5m in a move which took him from Sevilla to Fernabache.
Also, Nigeria’s Emmanuel Emenike is number eight on the all-time list with a €13 million fee in a move from Spartak Moscow to Fernabache in the 2013/2014 season.
