(In Turkey) Premier League Calling? Osimhen Speaks Out on Galatasaray Exit Rumors

Victor Osimhen says goodbye? Galatasaray striker issues statement as Turkish club beg for striker to stay amid Man Utd, Chelsea and Arsenal interest

Victor Osimhen has spoken out about his future amid swirling transfer rumors, leaving fans and clubs on edge. The Nigerian striker, currently on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli, expressed deep gratitude toward the Turkish side, noting their place in his heart.

However, he remained non committal about what comes next, stating he’ll decide his path at the seasons end. Galatasaray, where he’s been in scintillating form with 28 goals in 32 appearances, is desperate to keep him. Their loan agreement lacks a buy option, and Napoli is reportedly holding firm for a £55.5 million fee to secure a permanent deal.

Interest from the Premier League is intense. Manchester United, Chelsea, and Arsenal are all reportedly in the race for the 26 year old forward, who’s previously hinted at a preference for England’s top flight. Earlier whispers also linked him to Juventus, while a lucrative move to Saudi Arabia hasn’t been entirely ruled out, though Europe seems his likely destination. 

Osimhen’s focus, for now, remains on delivering for Galatasaray, where he’s become a fan favorite and a key figure in their campaign.

The transfer saga is far from over. With no immediate resolution, speculation will only grow as the season progresses. Will he return to Napoli, stay with Galatasaray, or make a blockbuster Premier League switch? 

Only time will tell, but Osimhen’s keeping his cards close to his chest, prioritizing performances over headlines. Fans across Europe are watching closely, eager to see where one of football’s brightest talents lands next.
