Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has emerged as the most valuable player in Turkey following his recent transfer to Galatasaray.
The Nigerian striker, who previously played for Napoli, has joined the Turkish club on a season-long loan deal. This move comes after a period of uncertainty and speculation about his future, with several top European clubs, including Chelsea, showing interest in him.
Osimhen's transfer to Galatasaray was finalized after he was left out of Napoli's squad for the current Serie A season. The decision to exclude him from the team was influenced by a series of disagreements with Napoli's management and the club's failure to secure a transfer deal with Chelsea. As a result, Osimhen found himself in a challenging position, ultimately leading to his move to the Turkish Süper Lig.
Galatasaray has agreed to cover Osimhen's substantial salary for the duration of the loan, which does not include an option or obligation to buy. This strategic acquisition is expected to significantly bolster Galatasaray's attacking options for the 2024-25 season. Osimhen's arrival in Turkey has been met with great enthusiasm, and he is anticipated to make a substantial impact in the league.
Victor Osimhen is expected to make his debut for Galatasaray in their Turkish Süper Lig fixture against Rizespor on September 15.
