Former Galatasaray head coach Hamza Hamzaoglu has waded into the discussion of a potential permanent deal for Napoli's on-loan striker Victor Osimhen, admitting that the Turkish giant has no financial muscle to pull the deal through, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
"It is difficult for Galatasaray to buy Victor Osimhen. In fact, I can say that they cannot. I heard that there are suitors for Osimhen. Galatasaray can go up to a certain point in the figures, but after that, it may cause problems.
"Financial situations need to be considered. However, if he stays, he will continue to benefit, Hamza Hamzaoglu stated in an interview session with Turkish news outlet Habersarikirmizi.
The Super Eagles striker has been the subject of interest from a host of top European clubs and with the Turkish team not able to take the risk to make his deal permanent, he would be looking to finally resolve his future in the summer as Napoli awaits offers within the right values.
