What Morata’s possible move to Galatasaray means for Milan, Gimenez and Osimhen
Milan will allow Alvaro Morata to join Galatasaray only if Feyenoord agree to sell Santiago Gimenez, while Victor Osimhen will remain with the Turkish club until the end of the season.
Fabrizio Romano reported on Thursday that Galatasaray were in talks with Milan for Spanish striker Morata and Sky Sport confirmed negotiations between the two clubs.
However, the Italian broadcasters claim that Galatasaray have made an offer to sign the Spain captain on loan with an option to buy, while Milan aim for a permanent transfer.

Furthermore, the Rossoneri will only allow Morata to move to Turkey if Feyenoord send Gimenez to San Siro.
The Mexico international has already reached an agreement with the Diavoli, but talks between the two clubs are still ongoing as Feyenoord haven’t yet accepted the Rossoneri’s offer.
Gimenez sustained a minor injury in a Champions League match against Lille last night but is not expected to remain out of action for long.
Morata’s possible move to Galatasaray prompted fans to wonder whether the Spaniard would push Osimhen out of the club this month. However, Fabrizio Romano said the Nigerian international won’t leave the Turkish side in the January window.
Osimhen is currently on loan at Galatasaray, and Corriere dello Sport and Repubblica reported this week that Napoli had rejected the Turkish side’s €65m bid to sign the 26-year-old on a permanent transfer.
