Galatasaray President, Dursan Ozbek, has disclosed that Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen’s contract with the club does not have a release clause.

Osimhen, who was on loan to Galatasaray last season, joined the Turkish Super Lig champions on a permanent transfer this summer, bringing an end to his time with Italian side Napoli.

The deal was finalised after Galatasaray triggered the €75m release clause in Osimhen’s Napoli contract.

Addressing speculations of a release clause being included in his contract with Galatasaray, Ozbek put the reports to rest, revealing that there was no such thing.

“Osimhen’s contract does not have an exit clause. He is extremely successful and will serve Galatasaray for many years.

“It may be said that the amount we transferred [to Napoli] was high, but today the price of the football public service is low and the player’s value is much higher.

“Every footballer’s contract we make is very transparent. Contracts in accordance with the rules of TFF and UEFA. Our values that suit Galatasaray and our march to success will continue unchanged,” he said.
