Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has reportedly fired his agent, Roberto Calenda, amid ongoing transfer complications, according to Il Mattino (via TMW).
Osimhen is said to be frustrated with Calenda’s handling of his situation, particularly in his attempts to secure a permanent move away from Napoli. It’s believed that the Nigerian international even negotiated his potential loan move to Galatasaray without an agent.
Osimhen was widely expected to leave Napoli on transfer deadline day, with interest from Al Ahli and Chelsea, but no deals materialized. Calenda faced significant backlash on social media for failing to finalize any transfers.
Reports suggest that Osimhen enlisted Turkish intermediary George Gardi to negotiate with Galatasaray. The proposed deal is a straightforward loan until the end of the season, with a break clause in January should any top European clubs express interest.
