Galatasaray's transfer of Victor Osimhen has made waves worldwide.
The Italian press has made a striking claim regarding the contract and salary of the world-famous striker who was loaned from Napoli.
Details of the new contract signed by Osimhen, who joined Galatasaray on loan, with Napoli have been revealed.
According to a report by Corriere dello Sport, the Nigerian striker's release clause will drop from 130 million to 75 million Euros starting in January 2025.
The release clause in question will be valid for all clubs in the world, excluding Italian teams.
It has been stated that Osimhen's contract is currently set to expire in 2026, but if the player is not sold by next summer, Napoli can unilaterally extend the contract until 2027.
The report also touched upon the salary Osimhen will earn from Galatasaray.
Galatasaray had announced the Nigerian striker's salary as 6 million Euros.
However, the Italian press reported that the Yellow-Reds will cover the entirety of Osimhen's salary (11 million euros).
The 25-year-old forward, who played 32 matches for Napoli in the 2023-24 season, contributed 17 goals and 4 assists.
