Man Utd, PSG Receive Good News as Napoli Stand Firm on Financial Stance for Galatasaray Target

In his column for CaughtOffside, journalist Alfredo Pedulla shared the latest on the Osimhen file, noting that while Galatasaray want to pay the release clause, Napoli require more than just a desire to trigger it.

“In recent hours, Osimhen has been in direct contact with Galatasaray, and there has been an honest conversation with the club’s vice president in Italy, who confirmed the willingness to pay his €75m release clause,” Pedulla wrote.

“Napoli want more. Not just vague promises of splitting the payment in instalments, but a real final guarantee, like a proper bank guarantee or an irrevocable letter of credit.

“In short: cash straight away or bulletproof guarantees. Now it’s up to Galatasaray to fully meet Napoli’s demands. There’s a reason why Napoli want every cent: it’s a matter of funding their incoming transfers and the investment in their next striker.”
