Victor Osimhen has warned Napoli not to make a decision over his future for him, but the club has reportedly gone against his message and made an early decision ahead of the transfer window.
Osimhen and Napoli are at loggerheads despite the player still being affiliated with the club. He left on acrimonious terms in the summer after disputes over his transfer.
He is on a season-long loan at Galatasaray and has impressed with his performances early into the loan, such that the Turkish club are interested in making the deal permanent.
Galatasaray out of race for Osimhen
According to Turkiye Today, Gala have called a meeting of important stakeholders in a bid to raise the required finances for the permanent transfer of the player.

Napoli director Giovanni Manna was reportedly in Istanbul to meet with the Turkish giants and initially claimed a deal would not happen unless the Lions paid the required amount.
Webaslan has now reported that Manna has effectively ruled out the sale of Osimhen to Galatasaray over their inability to raise funds, which they could not afford.
“Our door is closed to negotiations. Galatasaray does not have the budget to pay this amount at this moment. The fee is €75 million, there are many teams that want Osimhen. They are ready to pay this amount,” he said, per Webaslan.
The Turkish champions could have experienced a barrier with the Nigerian’s salary as he is on a reduced wage to join them on loan and escape exile in Naples.
