Topic: Turkish Super League 2024/25 Season - page 8. (Read 4574 times)

Previously I thought Osimhen would return to negotiations with the Saudi team but in the end he had loan agreement with Galatasaray and of course this is big thing for Galatasaray especially for the competition in Turkish football considering that Osimhen can be very helpful in the title fight.
But from some of the news that I have read, it states that Osimhen and Galatasaray also have special clause agreement where for the next transfer window if there is team that Osimhen wants to be able to meet the transfer requirements with Napoli then he can leave Galatasaray.
In addition, if Osimhen does not really get an agreement with one of the team in the next transfer window, Napoli will extend the contract until 2027 or it can be said to be an extension for one season.
It just you are right that if Osimhen is able to play very well with Galatasaray, it is also possible that purchase agreement will occur and he will really become Galatasaray player, we just see how it develops later.

Ahaha yes my friend it happened and I still can't believe how such a transfer happened. I thought a classy center forward like Osimhen should be playing in bigger clubs at a young age but now he is in Galatasaray and Galatasaray can return to his glorious days in Europe.

But before that we need to complete the missing things, the forward force has become incredibly strong, if he is completed at the same level in the middle, I can't imagine the level he can compete with which teams in Europe.

I was also surprised to see it. I thought Galatasaray board planned the last moments of the transfer window while bringing Osimhen. But it looks like they won't be able to register any more player in the Europa League for now. Osimhen is still a high quality player of course but if I were in their place I would prioritize those positions to be consolidated first. Because after Kerem's leaving the team they don't have a better left winger left.

Osimhen has officially worn the number 45 in galatasaray and I think the match against Rizespor next week will be his first match with galatasaray, with the arrival of osimhen to the super lig of course we will see a fierce competition especially for the two eternal rivals (galatasaray and fenerbache) so far, galatasaray currently have osimhen in their front line while Fenerbache will still rely on Edin Dzeko as its main striker,  So I think we will also see the tight rivalry as for  top scorer and may also add to the excitement of the Super Lig later, Mourinho who this season is his first season coaching Fenerbache will certainly be very challenged to destroy Galatasaray dominance in the league.

Victor Oshimen has been seen wearing the Galatasaray uniform, he will soon make his debut with Galatasaray, I think this will add to the club's strength in terms of attack, he is very skilled in the line ahead, now Jose Mourinho will get an even tougher challenge to bring his club to win the championship because its main competitor Galatasaray already has a talented striker. Oshimen might make his first debut in the 4th match later when Galatasaray will face Rizespor, maybe Oshimen still needs to adapt first before he becomes a player who is relied on by the club, maybe if he can continue to create many opportunities he will be made permanent by Galatasaray considering that his price has now been lowered by Napoli to 75 million euros.

Now we can continue to criticize Galatasaray management.
They did not buy right and left wingers, they sent the players we had.
Who will pass the ball to these Osimhen and Icardi?
There will definitely be no right and left wings in European matches because the deadline to submit the list to UEFA ended last night.
In this case, it was very bad that Kerem left.

With this financial analysis you gave, Galatasaray can afford Victor Osimhnen's salary. They have saved enough money from their strategic transfer plans and just took advantage of the chance to buy Osimhen. I just hope the club will feature the Nigerian in their next game against Rizespor tomorrow. The club is currently second in the Super Lig after winning all of the three games. They will top the league if they win the next since top leaders Fernabahce have played one more yet have ten points. A win will move Galatasaray to twelve points. Okan Buruk might use two top strikers to make them effective in the attack.     

This will take time then we will be able to have all facts on papers around us because these all secret deals are going to be coming out but surely will take time because right now we have no reliable source for giving any update related to this but as suddenly we have these things fixed it's surely not normal.

Even now Super League is having good intention, but things are not going as normal something surely going to explode in coming years for few clubs.

Few years back we have same situation in few European countries as their clubs were doing more than their income with their end were not good mostly were gone bankrupt, and we have the worst time for them with they take too much time for bringing themselves back into normal now it's same situation here in Turkish Super League both clubs Besiktas and Galatasaray are spending more than their approach which is not good sign.

I'm also wondering how Galatasaray is managing not to bankrupt. After all these money spent on players and not making big sales, I can't help but question this.    They have signed a world star like Osimhen. Some news sources are telling us that they are going to pay only 6 million euros of his salary. But it doesn't look convincing. I think it is nothing less than 10 million euros. Okan Buruk says he is going to use 2 forwards. I wonder how good Icardi and Osimhen will get along.

I don't think Aboubakar went to Hataspor just to play football, especially at his age.
Something must have been promised secretly. It didn't make sense to me that he refused such a big money and went to Hatay just for the love of football.
The other two players, whose age is known, receive very high amounts of money from Beşiktaş.
Why would he leave it? If it were me, I wouldn't go either. When these players were bought, the clubs gave their own money.
There is no one who supervises it properly.
One day it will explode very badly, but I don't know when. It won't always be like this.

Finally one of the 3 foreign players who were troublesome left. Amartey and Oxlade-Chamberlain persistently refused to leave but Aboubakar gave up and went to Hatayspor. If he had stayed here, he wouldn't have played. They earn a lot of money and don't play football, unfortunately in this situation the players are always protected, not the clubs. This system needs to change.
Lists are being sent to the European Cups tonight. There will be no big transfers after this. If there are, teams will not incur such a cost because the player will not be able to play in the European cups. We can say that the transfer season is over.

This situation is making me really nervous.    Because we are spending quite a lot money lately. Nearly €6m for only terminating a player's contract? This is just too much. This could cause us to face important financial issues later on. I know we have just sold Kerem Aktürkoğlu to Benfica for €12m. But how much of that money is added to the transfer budget?

Now we are trying to sign a left winger and a central midfielder. They say we have offered a salary around €10m to Rabiot. We have no other choice than winning trophies this season. Otherwise I don't know how we can handle it...

There were rumors in the Greek league today that Olympiakos was interested in Sergio Oliveira. Maybe Olympiakos paid the contract termination fee. For this reason, instead of giving a transfer fee, they might have added him to their team in this way. Teams have to be more careful within the framework of the Financial FairPlay agreement. I think Galatasaray may have chosen this path because they wanted to take steps in this regard. They also announced that Osimhen's annual salary is 6 million Euros. This figure does not make sense to me.

Galatasaray terminated Sergio Oliviera's contract and will pay 5.8 million euros for 2 years. Oliviera receives 3.2 million euros annually. I don't understand how they waste this money. What kind of contract is this? Players like Osimhen don't come for nothing. I don't care, but where does this club get this money?
He could not enter the Champions League either. If it continues like this, these clubs will go bankrupt.

I disagree with waste on money part too, if you can get 100 million euro worth player then you get him, there is no questions asked, doesn't matter if it will put you financially in trouble, if you have to end up with a much worse team for a few years after this, that's fine and you can do it, you could get cheaper and better players in the future all thanks to this as well, it's clear that we are dealing with a world star here and Galatasaray is not a team that can get Osimhen in any other case, so it's clear that we are dealing with once in a life chance, if you can do it then you do it.

Obviously Galatasaray got very lucky, this is a dude that got offered 100 million just a month ago, so they can sell whoever they want, and make the money back, Osimhen is a great big deal.

This season the Turkish league has seen the arrival of many great players, especially those who play as strikers, Osimhen, Immobile, and also En-Nesyri looks like he will grace the list of top scorers in the Super League this season, Osimhen arrival at Galatasaray will of course make the Super League even tighter in trophies competition and I think Osimhen will still be able to make a big contribution to his new team, Osimhen has proven himself to be a great striker and Galatasaray are very lucky to be able to get him now although it's a little late after they were knocked out of the Champions League this season, in the derby match we will see how if two strikers (Osimhen vs Edin Dzeko) who have played in Serie A will show who is better between them.

It is certain that interest in the Turkish Super League will increase. A player like Osimhen joining the league will be a great advertisement. At the same time, the team will earn a great income from jersey sales. It is not easy to make such transfers, if the management can overcome the debt burden they have taken on, they will have done a very good job.

I do not know how much financial power Galatasaray has, but they could not participate in the Champions League and they will not receive the income that will come from the Champions League. I do not think the price they will pay for Osimhen is too high. This price is too low to bring a player like Osimhen to the team. The problems Osimhen had with his former team caused Galatasaray to make the transfer. Galatasaray managed to turn these problems to its advantage.

That's true, I mean they are spending something like 10 million euro if he stays all year long and that's just for one year of his contract, they are paying that for Icardi as well per year, not really that shocking, hell they are paying like 3-4 million for Zaha just so he is not on their team, imagine how terrible of a deal that is, it would be insane to have Zaha on your team, and then pay a few million for a year to just send him, that makes no sense to me.

So when you consider all of that, it's clear to say that 10 million for one year of Osimhen is just insanely good idea and doesn't mean that it was money spent on waste.

Plus, they sold tete for 7 million and got rid of his salary, got rid of Zaha and saved 3-4 million there, sold Kerem recently for 12 million to benfica and got rid of his salary, Zaniolo on loan and not paying his salary plus making money there, sold a young Turkish defender, so all of these together with new Oliveira news, we can say that they saved enough from salaries alone to pay for Osimhen.

Probably not spending anything more than they were spending last year, combine all those players they sold, and see how much their salary was, not even talking about money they made on transfers, just the salaries they saved would be enough to get a world star striker, that's a deal you take no matter what.

With the Osimhen transfer, Galatasaray probably completed the season's transfers. Fenerbahçe said they would not buy any more players and completed the squad. We are now entering the league with this squad. Osimhen was a transfer that made both me and Fenerbahçe fans happy in terms of the recognition of the league because he will be a player who adds quality to the Turkish league. I hope he does not play effectively against us in the derby we will play on September 21.

Galatasaray was very smart in this signing, they studied Victor Osimhen very carefully and realized something that few teams didn't. Victor Osimhen is a good player who wants to shine in the big clubs in Europe, but at the moment the big clubs in Europe don't want to spend a lot of money with the contract termination clause that Napoli had imposed. So Galatasaray saw this as a great opportunity, because since Napoli no longer wants Victor Osimhen and it was already clear that no big club in Europe would want Victor Osimhen, Galatasaray proposed the loan deal, because they know that even in the next transfer window the big European clubs won't go after Victor Osimhen even with the contract clause reduced to €75m fee.

I liked the points raised in this article:

Galatasaray fans are very happy with this signing, they say that more than 50,000 fans are on the streets chanting Osimhen name
