Victor Osimhen Says Napoli 'Treated Me Like a Dog' in New Interview

He cites a broken gentleman’s agreement over a 2024 exit as the turning point that sent him to Galatasaray.

Overview

  • Osimhen says a Napoli TikTok mocking his missed penalty fractured relations, describing insinuations around the post and racist insults before deciding to leave.
  • He claims a December 2023 extension included a gentleman’s agreement to depart the following summer, which he says the club did not fully honor.
  • The striker alleges Napoli tried to dictate his destination and “move me around,” which he rejects as disrespectful to his career.
  • He confirms Juventus interest in 2024 via calls from Cristiano Giuntoli, says Napoli would not sell him there, and ultimately joined Galatasaray on loan before a permanent move in 2025.
  • Osimhen praises former coach Luciano Spalletti and denies any dispute with him, and he notes Antonio Conte wanted him to stay at Napoli as Galatasaray now prepare to face Juventus in the Champions League.
