Victor Osimhen reportedly rejects big money transfer to Man United

Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis is reportedly upset with Victor Osimhen after the Nigerian striker turned down a potential transfer to Man United in the January 2025 window. Since September, Osimhen has been excelling on loan at Galatasaray, scoring 10 goals in 15 league appearances. Despite interest from the Premier League giants, Osimhen remains committed to staying with Galatasaray until the end of the season.

According to reports, his decision has frustrated De Laurentiis, who views it as another instance of the player complicating matters for Napoli. The club had been aiming to secure a €81 million sale in January, but Osimhen’s stance has put that plan in jeopardy. If he remains with Galatasaray until the summer, his release clause will decrease to €75 million.
