Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has not been included in Napoli’s pre-season plans, according to Soccernet.
This comes as Osimhen is expected to complete a permanent transfer to Galatasaray eventually.
Both clubs have been locked in negotiations since last week over the terms of the deal.
The first bid from the Turkish champions was around €50 million and was quickly rejected.
Galatasaray increased their offer to €70 million, bringing it closer to Napoli’s valuation of Osimhen.
The Partenopeans began their pre-season camp on Monday, with returning players undergoing medical tests.
Osimhen was conspicuously absent from the Napoli squad.
Meanwhile, Galatasaray beat Umraniyespor 5–2 last week in a pre-season fixture.
