Galatasaray go use their hand enter bankruptcy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


Napoli just want to push Osimhen to saudi where they will make more money

If I be Osihmen I rather sit out the rest of my contract at Naples instead
And how exactly is Osimhen sitting out the rest of his contract going to help him and the Super Eagles... Osimhen will be down mentally and physically if he does that... we have crucial world cup qualifiers and even Afcon were we will need Osimhen at his best and you are suggesting he sit out his contract.... are you guys even super eagles fans at all because it seems you guys care more about what these players achieve with European teams than the super eagles

In this case, Osimhen should push for a loan and get it done with. If they don't agree, Osimhen's management should head to the Court of Arbitration for Sport to get a ruling to make a loan move to Galatasaray or any other club.

It is clear Napoli still wants to frustrate him as they messed up Coulibally.
Na now e clear for your eye Abi, phew!

and nothing is wrong with the interest still. Osimhen shot himself in the foot by agreeing to the new demonic contract that was dangled in front of him

That is what he is suffering currently. Kvara declined signing such and had an easy no drama transfer to his preferred club PSG. Napoli couldn’t hold him down cus they hv got nothing on him

Stop whining and being emotional over nothing
Osimhen shouldn't have signed that new contract,
The increase of his wages would have been negotiated and done with the new club of his choice, a club like PSG would have paid him even more than $12m.
Any of Chelsea,Arsenal and Chelsea would have accepted to pay between $9-12 then without drama.

You are praying the deal collapse so Osimhen goes where?... it seems you guys don't get it yet that Galatasaray are the only club in Europe interested in Osimhen
Galatasaray is not the only club interested in Osimhen in Europe.
The problem is paying 75m to Napoli and also paying Osimhen 12m in his wages, if the release clause or wages is reduced, top clubs would have signed him.

The market is not just fair,some players are valued less than what they are worth while some are over valued more than what they actually worth.

From transfer news it is man utd and Galatasaray... and Osimhen doesn't want to reduce his wages for man utd... so which other clubs are you talking about?

If you say Osimhen shot himself, fine, but what of Koulibaly? Milik? ADL is a difficult person I don't wish any of our players join issues with.

Journalist Angry Over €75 Million Fee and Sell-On Clause
Nigerian journalist Buchi Laba, who is close to Osimhen, shared his anger online after Napoli’s latest transfer terms were revealed.

Reacting on social media, Laba wrote:

“How can you ask for a sell-on clause for a player with just one year left on his contract and also want €75 million? It’s madness.”

He added that Napoli’s actions were nothing short of “wickedness,” saying the club was making the deal harder even though Osimhen reportedly wants the move to Galatasaray.

Fans also feel frustrated, believing that Napoli is blocking Osimhen’s chance to move, even though he has agreed personally with the Turkish club.

Napoli’s Demands Causing Delay
Reports from Italian journalists like Alfredo Pedullà and Fabrizio Romano say Napoli wants:

€40 million paid this year

€35 million paid next year (in one payment)

A sell-on clause, meaning Napoli would get a share of any future sale if Galatasaray sells Osimhen later

But Galatasaray has rejected these terms. They want to pay over a longer period, until 2027, and do not agree to giving Napoli a share of any future sale.

What Happens Next?
Because both clubs can’t agree, the transfer is now on hold. It’s not clear if Osimhen will get the move he wants before the new season starts.
This is silly talk from Buchi as usual
Everyone knows that if you want to pay a release clause in installments, you have to make concessions.

Either pay more than the clause or agree to the seller's demands.

A release clause is not activated yet until paid in full.

realpoacher:
Isn't it obvious that you are intentionally dodging the real problem here?

Even if Osimehn somehow manages to agree to a lesser wage, no club will accept that sell-on clause there.

Show me any where in the world where a team will buy a player for €75m and accept a sell-on clause in the deal. That's impossible for a 26 year old player.

Can't you see?... It's not a wage issue, it's a sell-on clause problem.

Or in your Almighty advisory role? What do you think Osimehn should do about that clause considering the decision doesn't lie in his hand rather with the buying club?....

I bet you will suggest that he should force the buying club to accept such idiotic clause too right?
The sell on clause is a recent development. Osimhen has already agreed with Galatasaray on his wages based on the report. My stance on reduced wages is devoid of that development.

You can see from the post "Ekiteki very high on the list"
Liverpool are ready to drop 120m for Isak
So if they were serious with Osimhen his wages and transfer fee wouldn't be an issue

Brother, nobody hates you.

Cunha went from 90k a week to 180k a week.
Wirtz is 195k per week
Gyökeres is 130k per week

This is the new landscape for clubs now.

Osimhen currently is requesting £9m net
That's over 300k.

United will gladly offer that same 9m they offered Cunha to Osimhen. Will he collect?

You're saying the same thing.
Sign Isak for 120m
Increase his wage from 120k a week to 200k.
Give him 5 year contract.
Total expenditure 170m.

Pros: A 200k a week salary not too hard to sell.
More ceiling for wage increase.
League proven
No mid-season AFCON


Osimhen 65m (pounds)
Wages: 18m
Total expenditure over 5 years: 155m

Cons: Opposite of Isak's pros

This determines the interest.

Awaziem is expected to join from Boavista, after stints in Turkey, Croatia, and MLS. Third summer signing for the Canaris after El-Arabi and Radaković.

Napoli will be forced to loan him towards the end of the transfer window if no top team wants to sign him outright

Also it’s like Napoli has a clause that activates automatically additional 1 season in the contract ooo when the current one runs out 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Exactly the point most people are not seeing, Napoli want to punish Osimhen for rejecting the Saudi deal, and are just in to frustrate his transfer to any other club outside their choice. Osimhen's wage demand is the least of the problem here.

that’s just it. The plan have always been to sell to the Saudis where they stand to gain more from the sale

Many here are just emotional and doesn’t want to accept the fact that Osimhen is the architect of his problem and predicaments. That big money contract renewal was a big trap which the player and his advisers willingly fell for

Napoli invested around 70m in signing him from Lille as well as upgraded his earnings massively after 2 seasons with them and you are sitting in you house expecting them not to recoup and make profit from their investment?

Even if Osimhen accept to cut down his demands to 150k-180k weekly just to force a move to one of the top clubs in europe will the interested club be willing to pay what ADL wants?

Osimhen must go Saudi whether him like am or not 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Exactly.

Look at Arsenal telling Palace that they would pay above Eze's release clause in exchange for favourable payment methods.

It's why Chelsea pay higher but sign players on long contract. So they can spread it over 7 years.

Gyökeres to earn €8M at Arsenal from the €2M he earns at Sporting CP...

And he reduced €2M o... We all know what we're doing, lol.
It is easy to sign players on small wages and offer them X3, X4. What was Gyokeres earning at Sporting before? He agreed to earn 130k a week at Arsenal because he was on small wages. Look at Wirtz, Liverpool signed him for £130m but his wages is 195k that’s because he was earning small at his old club.

Why do you think Man U have difficulty selling players like Rashford 300k weekly and Sancho 250k weekly? It’s because of their expensive wages. Bayern and Barca are after 29years old Luis Diaz because of his small wages instead of Rashford. The two clubs are interested in Rashford but that huge salary is the problem. You think Osimhen would still be in this wahala if he was earning 100-150k weekly at Napoli?


See Liverpool ready to splash 120m on Isak because his wages at Newcastle is just 120k. They can easily sign him and offer a better deal.

One thing is clear Osimhen didn't have the shrewdest and most prudent team advising him.

Given the recent news involving Napoli and Galatsaray, I think it's safe to conclude that the biggest issue here is not necessarily Osimhen's demands, nor the reluctance of English or Spanish teams to bid for him -- even though arguments could be made about both. The biggest issue I can see here is the devilish obstinacy, greed and wickedness of Di Laurentis. In a fair and just world, there should be FFP FIFA regulations to put an end to the kind of nonsense Napoli is doing, but oh well...

Osimhen's drama with Napoli should definitely be a cautionary tale for all upcoming stars and their agents.
