It is understood €6 million (R138 million) of the striker's annual salary will be paid by the Istanbul-based club for the season, while it has also been said that he has requested a break clause in his deal.
This would reportedly allow the player to part ways with Galatasaray if a top club comes knocking during the January transfer window.
This comes after the player pushed hard for a move away from Napoli, resulting in the Italian side reportedly excluding him from their squad list for the season and taking the No. 9 jersey off him.
As part of the negotiations for the loan deal, Osimhen reached an agreement with Gli Azzurri for his release clause to be lowered to €75 million (R1.4 billion).
