In theory, its not just about paying Napoli neither, even if Napoli agreed to free transfer, its about convincing Osimhen as well and I believe we won't be able to do that. Look at Osimhens offers so far, and he could make about 20-30 million at the very least, without a doubt he is going to get paid more if he wants to go to Saudi league for example, but with a great european club he could be paid more and he would be playing at a higher level. Thankfully, we are watching him for a season, he will score a lot of goals if he stays healthy, and after that we are going to see him leave for a team that will end up with a greater return. He will be making more, and we can't match the offer from those clubs, they will offer far more than what we could ever consider to offer.
Purchase of a player from a club does not only involve the two clubs, but the selling club and the buyer also have to get the approval of the player for him want to move, so I think Galatasaray certainly have a big challenge to convince Osimhen want to accept a permanent contract from them, if we pay attention,Osimhen transfer always continued to give rise to complexity and speculation as well as what happened last summer, I think if Osimhen only wants money then the offer of Al Ahli last summer could be the right choice but precisely he reject the offer, so his desire to play in big clubs and big leagues in Europe makes his relationship with Napoli complicated at the moment, I personally see Galatasaray as only a ladder for Osimhen for him to move to a big team like PSG, Chelsea or Arsenal later and I'm sure he won't waste his age and career in the Turkish league.

Your point is valid about it's never been easy to convenience Victor Osimhen for staying here at the Turkish Super League with few top English clubs and Saudi League offers are looming around him which can give him enough money for rest of his life but for me most chances we will be having this top quality striker into Premier League were now after reduced price we have few clubs are happy to bring him because in last season we have few good offers but Napoli management done mistakes and lost their chance.
Without any doubt this was amazing season for the Galatasaray and Turkish soccer as they have his services for one season where he is doing impressive performance and showing how amazing he is in recent time with his skills and quality.
There are several rumors circulating that several big team are trying to fulfill Osimhen release clause and get him, Manchester United and AC Milan are two team that have been quite actively discussed lately although several Saudi team have also shown interest in him.
6 match in the Turkish Super League with 6 goal and 2 assists, that is pretty good result at the beginning of joining Galatasaray.
Fenerbahçe could not have used this opportunity in any way, I am sure. Fenerbahçe's management is really unresponsive to the situations, and so are the fans.
Fenerbahçe - Zenit match the fans called on the management to resign. Why did they call for this match when there was nothing going on, I think it was a ridiculous reaction.

Sometimes it is really difficult to understand Fenerbahçe fans. They don't make this call in the right place at the right time. For example I remember our derby loss against Galatasaray. Even though we lost by 3-1 home the fans were still cheering about our chairman Ali Koç. But Galatasaray fans are not like that. When they really aren't satisfied with the results after giving some time to the chairman they start to call them to resign.
It doesn't matter how much time passes. Maybe we also need a big change other than the same names for starting a successful era.
I also think Victor Osimhen sees Galatasaray as a stepping stone. Of course, his goal is to play in the Premier League. Teams like Chelsea and Arsenal will step in for this. Even Manchester United under Ruben Amorim may try to transfer him. Because the team wants to gain new momentum and Osimhen can be an important name in this momentum. He will have many suitors in the January transfer season. Now his decision is important here because if he wants to leave the team, he can go to the Premier League in January. There will definitely be a Premier League team that will visit Napoli and start transfer talks.
Even watching Osimhen for a year is very valuable for us. 
Because his contribution to our club means a lot to me. He never plays reluctantly which makes me admire him even more. Of course there is another reason for it also other than his love for Galatasaray fans. He really wants to show his skills as much as possible to be signed by a big European league club next summer.Will this happen? Yeah, most probably. In the end Galatasaray can't convince him against such clubs even if they manage to afford him. I wish the Turkish Super League was among valuable European leagues...

Beşiktaş and Fenerbahçe have tough games ahead of them after the national matches, but Galatasaray will play an easy opponent. Beşiktaş and Fenerbahçe must win to keep the points gap from widening. Bodrumspor's chances of taking points from Galatasaray are very low. As a new team in the league, they have lost 7 of their 12 matches and are one of the relegation candidates. Fenerbahçe, on the other hand, is away to Kayserispor. Kayserispor have struggled to win in the league but have managed to draw many matches, they have 6 draws. They are also unbeaten in their last 5 matches. Beşiktaş, who have not won in their last three matches, will play at home against Göztepe. There is no other option for them but to win this match. Göztepe, on the other hand, has been winning and losing in a row for the last 7 weeks. Last time they beat Konyaspor, next is defeat hopefully. As I said, it will be a difficult week for both big teams, but I think they will win. With the return of the injured players, the teams will have their ideal squads.

We know that Osimhen will go to a much bigger club, I don't think we will encounter a different scenario. However, according to the latest statements, Osimhen may stay at Galatasaray until the end of the year.
I thought he would leave the team much earlier, but from what I understand, he is happy to be in this team, probably because of his friendships and the love of his fans, playing here made him happy
Previously we knew that Osimhen had a big enough interest to play at big clubs like Chelsea, PSG and Arsenal, but Napoli's decision to set a very high price was actually a barrier to him leaving for the big team, the goal of playing at the galatasaray in my opinion is just as a stepping stone before he moves to another bigger team later, So indeed I don't think if he will stay at Galatasaray for a long time although he is quite comfortable in Turkey at the moment, I think Osimhen will leave for another better club and maybe in January it will happen considering that currently Napoli has cut its selling price including a release clause that no longer has a very high value.I thought he would leave the team much earlier, but from what I understand, he is happy to be in this team, probably because of his friendships and the love of his fans, playing here made him happy

With the way Icardi got injured and probably ended his season, having Osimhen definitely helps Galatasaray a lot more now. I mean it looked "useless" transfer as in that wasn't the place they needed a transfer in, they didn't "need" a striker, they had Icardi, who has been the goal scorer last season, and was pretty crucial one year before that, but looking on third season, Osimhen was just a transfer they did only because they actually think it was worth it, it's Osimhen, if you can get him then you get him, that was literally the only reason.
Now, looking at it, if they didn't have him, they would be playing with Batshuayi and that wouldn't really be ideal for them, it would be not enough for such a club. Imagine going from "osimhen is my main striker" to "batshuayi is my main striker", that is a huge drop. Don't want to offend Batshuayi, he is a great player, but Osimhen is a top 5 striker in the world, so it is not the same thing at all.

Against Samsunspor Osimhen netted 2 of his shots with Icardi’s shirt. These two are the perfect pairing of strikers I have ever seen
.Osimhen is going to be really helpful for his team right now. Yes, Icardi was playing really well for his team but as he is not available right now, probably for the whole season as well, Osimhen is going to be the main striker of the team and now he is also going to get the playing time that he deserves.
Sometimes you wonder if you should actually bring in an extra striker and it does feel useless at times. But whenever a striker gets injured, you realize it was the best decision that could have been made.
You know, if Oshimhen actually had left Napoli earlier he probably could have gotten a better club. But now he will have to perform really well to impress big clubs. We all know that his recent performance with Napoli was not that good, so now this is his chance.

What impresses superstars like him the most is the atmosphere and the huge fan support in Türkiye. Everyone in the country is obsessed with football. There are hardly any people who don't support a team. Leaving aside the injustices in the country, our country is one of the places where a footballer would want to play football the most. Fiery and die-hard supporters are naturally attracted to football players. If we add the astronomical salary they earn to this equation, it would be fair to say that they enjoy playing here more than other leagues.
If Galatasaray didn't have Osimhen now then I would think like Fenerbahçe could turn Icardi's injury into their advantage. But unfortunately they have him as well. 
Osimhen is one of the most valuable strikers in the world now. They are very lucky to have such a player no matter it is a loan or permanent deal. He really enjoys his game now and likes the place and the fans.
However it is very difficult for Galatasaray to keep him longer than a year. Even if they somehow find a way to pay for his release clause there would still be much bigger European teams after him.

While I would personally love to see Victor Oshimen play for a more bigger and competitive league, such as the English premier league, where he would have higher chances to compete with some of the biggest teams in Europe and probably winning silverware and awards, it still doesn't make Galatasaray any lesser. Galatasaray isn't a small team. They are a promising team and if they can put the right structures in place, they could also compete at the top level in European football.
You can say they're an average club if you don't want to agree that they're a small but the sportsbooks says the opposite against other top teams in Europe. In the Turkish league, they're one of the best teams over there but you can't compare them to other teams outside of the Turkish league. Victor Osimhen can't win a Ballon d'or playing for Galatasaray. He needs to join a league and club that his performance will be appreciated and not being talk down on with the excuses that he's doing it in a farmer league that nobody talks about. I didn't even watch games from there untill both him joined and Jose mourinho started coaching Fenerbahçe.
However it is very difficult for Galatasaray to keep him longer than a year. Even if they somehow find a way to pay for his release clause there would still be much bigger European teams after him.
When I heard that Victor Osimhen was going out on a loan to Galatasary, I thought instantly that he'll not last there as I had a feeling he was going to go over there and dominate the league therefore bringing in interest from top clubs around the world. I think Galatasary is a small club for Victor Osimhen. He need to be playing in the premier league or la liga to get more exposure that he'll need to be considered the best striker in the world. Galatasary wouldn't be capable of convincing him to stay even if they qualify for the champions league again as Victor Osimhen knows, it's only the league that he can win with them and not the champions league.
If Galatasaray didn't have Osimhen now then I would think like Fenerbahçe could turn Icardi's injury into their advantage. But unfortunately they have him as well.

Fenerbahçe - Zenit match the fans called on the management to resign. Why did they call for this match when there was nothing going on, I think it was a ridiculous reaction.
It was a mistake that Fenerbahçe fans didn't call on the management to resign until now. The fans have been chanting resignation slogans for a long time, but there was something organized against Zenit match. The absurd explanations of the management for the bad situation and the President's inaction against the reactions are angering the fans even more. Apart from that, Fenerbahce played with young players in this match and it was an enjoyable game. I don't know if Mourinho is trying something and waiting for the right moment to use it, but I liked the team even if it was a friendly.

Galatasaray must be ready to lose Osimhen if they can't make it permanent. The challenge is clear from big European clubs. Napoli's asking price is also not low, but with Osimhen's attitude of refusing to play in the Saudi League, it seems this player has a different idea for his career.
Currently, Galatasaray still has him on the team, but they also have to think about how to solve it when Osimhen does have to leave Galatasaray in the end. As rumored due to Icardi's injury, Galatasaray has started monitoring several strikers that might be able to get into the transfer market later.

Who are they interested in? I haven't heard anything about that. All I've heard is that they're asking the government for help to buy Osimhen. If that happens, there will be a massive boycott by fans of other teams. We will change our 25-year-old phone lines because this is basically stealing people's money. It's absolutely unacceptable that our taxes are being used for the transfer of a football club.

I agree with what you said about Osimhen. I would like him to stay at Galatasaray. But he needs to play in a more competitive league and team. But he can stay at Galatasaray at least until the end of the season. I think that would be the best for him and for Galatasaray. Because if he makes another transfer, he will have some difficulties to adapt to his new team. Galatasaray are a good team for his career where he can make good stats until the end of the season. On the other hand, Napoli president De Laurentiis didn't negotiate his transfer fee last season. This time I think he will evaluate the offers on the basis of an agreement.
If Galatasaray didn't have Osimhen now then I would think like Fenerbahçe could turn Icardi's injury into their advantage. But unfortunately they have him as well.
