Galatasaray secures a loan deal for Álvaro Morata from AC Milan, seen as a replacement for Victor Osimhen. The deal includes an option for an extension and a purchase clause. Morata’s transfer comes as Napoli rejects a €65 million offer to make Osimhen's move permanent.
Galatasaray, the Turkish football club, is close to securing a loan deal for Spanish striker Álvaro Morata from AC Milan. The move is viewed as a potential replacement for Victor Osimhen, whose future at Napoli is uncertain. Galatasaray had previously offered €65 million for Osimhen, but Napoli declined the proposal.
Sources indicate that both Milan and Galatasaray have agreed on the terms of Morata's transfer, which includes an initial loan deal with a one-year extension option and a buy clause. Following final paperwork, the Spanish forward will travel to Istanbul to finalize the transfer.
This development comes as clubs intensify their pursuit of Osimhen, with several teams, including Juventus, reportedly keen to secure his signature. Galatasaray's move for Morata seems strategic, with many experts suggesting it could pave the way for Osimhen's eventual departure from Napoli.
As for Osimhen, with numerous offers on the table, including the lucrative opportunity from Saudi Arabia, his next steps remain uncertain, making this transfer window crucial for both Napoli and the Nigerian forward.
