Galatasaray president Durzan Ozbek on Friday confirmed there is no release clause in Victor Osimhen’s contract, Prompt News reports.
Osimhen moved to the RAMS Park on a permanent transfer this summer after the Turkish Super Lig champions triggered the €75m release clause in his contract.
Ozbek,who also defended the huge fee spent on the Nigeria international said he would be at the club for a long spell.
“Osimhen’s contract doesn’t include an exit clause,” Ozbek he said during a sponsorship press conference on Friday.
“He’s an extremely successful player who will serve Galatasaray for many years to come.
“Perhaps on the day of our transfer, there was talk that the amount was high, but today, the prevailing opinion in the football community is that the transfer fee was low and the player’s value is much higher.
“Transparency is crucial in transfers at Galatasaray. Every player contract is extremely transparent and compliant with the federation, UEFA, and FIFA.
“While Galatasaray is doing all of this, it also evaluates its own financial structure. We see the results of this both on the field and in Galatasaray’s financial structure. Our march to success will continue unchanged.”
