Victor Osimhen transfer rumors

Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen is currently on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli following a fall out with Antonio Conte. He has been the subject of intense speculation regarding his next move. Several top European clubs, including Chelsea, Arsenal, and Juventus, have expressed interest in acquiring the Nigerian international, although reports suggest that Manchester United has withdrawn from the race.

Osimhen has stated that he will announce his future plans at the end of the current season. He recently scored his 33rd goal of the season for Galatasaray in all competitions, helping his team secure a 2-0 victory over Samsunspor. This win puts Galatasaray three points clear of Fenerbahce in the league standings.

According to ScoreNigeria, Osimhen is in no rush to make a decision about his next move. His primary focus is on winning the Super Lig and Turkish Cup with Galatasaray. He has also expressed his gratitude to the fans for their unwavering support.

Osimhen said, "I have heard about the rumours of my move, of course. But I prefer to live in the moment. I am currently enjoying myself with Galatasaray. The fans have also been incredibly supportive since the first day. All stakeholders within Galatasaray, everyone has helped me. They have always been there for me, not just me, but also my friends and family. This is the time for me to fight for the fifth star with my team, and a decision will be made at the end of the season about what will be best for everyone. Galatasaray will forever be in my heart." Top Premier League and Italian clubs are jostling for the signature of the prolific striker per TEAMtalk.

Galatasaray’s Vice President, Abdullah Kavukcu, has offered insights into Osimhen's future, noting his impressive performance in the Super Lig this season. Despite initial speculation linking him to England, Osimhen's move to Galatasaray has proven successful.

Osimhen himself has acknowledged the rumors surrounding his future but remains focused on his current commitments. He emphasized the importance of winning every match and contributing to Galatasaray's legacy.

Osimhen told Turkish sports handle Fanatik, "There are always rumours about me. But I live in the moment. I’m enjoying myself right now. But Galatasaray will be in my heart forever. The fans have also given me incredible support. They’ve been there not only for me but also for my friends and family. The decision will be made for what’s best for everyone."

Osimhen's teammate at Galatasaray, Dries Mertens, has praised the Super Eagles forward as one of the best in the world, subtly warning Premier League clubs what they could miss out on. "Victor is one of the top three strikers in the world at the moment, and we are lucky that he is playing for us. I think at this moment, you have not many strikers like him around,” he said on the Obi One Podcast.

Mertens also highlighted Osimhen's potential for further growth and his dedication to scoring goals. He confirmed that he played a role in helping Osimhen settle in Istanbul, further solidifying their bond.

Galatasaray fans have begun counting down to Osimhen's departure after the Super Eagles forward dropped a bombshell about his future.
