After loaning in Osimhen from Napoli, Galatasaray agree personal terms with Super Eagles midfielder

Napoli-owned striker Victor Osimhen could be on the verge of being joined by his international teammate, Raphael Onyedika in Galatasaray.

The 25-year-old just secured a season-long loan move to the Turkish side and may now be set to welcome his compatriot, Onyedika, to the club.

According to Sacha Tavolieri,  the reigning Turkish Süper Lig champions.have reached an agreement on personal terms with Onyedika on a five-year contract. 

However, Galatasaray are yet to find an agreement with Club Brugge for the signing of the Nigeria international, with the Belgian side rejecting the Turkish outfit's first bid.

Onyedika is keen on joining Galatasaray and will now be hoping that the Turkish side can reach an agreement with Club Brugge before the closure of the transfer window on Thursday.

The 23-year-old played a vital role in the Blue-Black's Jupiler Pro-League triumph last season, most notably in the playoffs, where he scored three goals in nine games.

He has been considered disposable all summer, but despite links with Crystal Palace, Barcelona, he has been unable to secure a move away from the Bruges-based club.

Onyedika has missed just one game in the Jupiler Pro-League this season and has started every time he has been named in the matchday squad.

He was in action today when the Super Eagles were forced to a goalless draw by Rwanda in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, coming on as a substitute for Fisayo Dele-Bashiru.
