Napoli has rejected Galatasaray’s €65m bid for its striker Victor Osimhen.

It would be recalled that Osimhen joined the Turkish Super Lig champions on loan from Napoli last September.

However, Galatasaray has the option to make the move permanent.

According to Italian news outlet, Il Corriere dello Sport, Galatasaray’s proposal to sign the Nigeria star on a permanent deal this month has been rejected by Napoli.

Osimhen is free to leave Napoli permanently for €75m this month and Napoli is not willing to lower the fee.

Osimhen reportedly rejected a move to Manchester United earlier this month.

Osimhen has scored 12 goals in 15 league appearances for Galatasaray this season.
