According to reports, Napoli is furious that Victor Osimhen, a star striker for Nigeria, turned down a January transfer to Manchester United. After a challenging start to the season, Manchester United is reportedly eager to sign the Nigerian international this month.
Osimhen has expressed his intention to play the entire season for Galatasaray, the Turkish Super League champions, and not sign with any other team this January, according to La Republica.
When he joined the Yellow and Reds on loan last September, a break-up clause was added to his contract because Napoli wanted to sell him for €81 million this month so they could use the proceeds to bolster their team.
The forward aged 26,, according to the publication has informed Napoli director Giovanni Manna that he wanted to remain with Galatasaray until the end of the season.
The 26-year-old’s decision has infuriated President Aurelio De Laurentiis, who saw it as Osimhen trying to make his situation difficult for Napoli.
