Galatasaray have prepared €50m maximum limit to purchase Victor Osimhen in January according to Turkish website Sozcu, but the Nigeria international has a €75m clause.
Osimhen is currently on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli, but the Turkish side do not have an option to make his move permanent.
The striker’s release clause was cut to €75m when he completed a temporary transfer to Galatasaray in September, but according to Turkish media Sozcu, Gala can’t afford to offer as much to sign the Napoli loanee.
According to the report, club directors can reach €50m thanks to a sponsor. The plan is to sign Osimhen in the January transfer window to beat other suitors, such as Chelsea.
The Blues were in talks with Osimhen and Napoli in August but failed to materialised the deal, so Osimhen joined Galatasaray on loan.
He has registered four goals and three assists in seven appearances for the Yellow and Reds.
