There have been some ups and downs in the career of Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen, the biggest downfall being Napoli. In 2020, Serie A club bought Osimhen from Lille for 78,9 million euros. He ended up at odds with Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis and after turbulence for a long time was loaned with an option to buy to the Turkish big club Galatasaray.
Last summer, Galatasaray exercised the €75 million purchase option. “And it was obviously smart, both for the results on the pitch and for the value of their investment.

Galatasaray have received a huge bid, but 130 million euros is clearly not enough.
According to Sky journalist Florian Plettenberg, Galatasaray received the giant bid for Victor Osimhen a few days ago – but it was met with ice-cold rejection.
The offer is said to have come via an intermediary acting on behalf of Saudi Arabian Al-Hilal.
Galatasaray brought in the striker from Napoli in 2024 – first on loan, then permanently. The 27-year-old’s contract runs until 2029, and the Turks are said to have zero interest in selling their goal king.
