Amid increasing rumours about a potential transfer, Galatasaray president Dursun Ozbek has addressed speculation linking Victor Osimhen to the Turkish Super Lig club.
Osimhen has been a shining light for Galatasaray since joining the Turkish side on loan in the summer transfer window.
The Nigerian international failed to get a deadline-day move to either Chelsea or Al-Ahli following failed negotiations.
However, he has been on the radar of several top European clubs, having delivered another dominant season.

He said, as reported by beIN SPORTS, "85 million people in Türkiye come to me with the same question. We are in a race right now, the race in football is not over. Transfers are at the beginning of June.
"Nobody should think about who to buy or sell. We are focused on the field. We have 5 matches ahead of us.
“We are working to win all 5 matches and make our fans happy. There is no transfer on our agenda right now. We will share our thoughts when the time comes."

Galatasaray wants to permanently sign the Nigerian player at the end of the season. However, Napoli, his parent club, values him at €75 million, which is a potential obstacle to the transfer.
Osimhen has established himself as a top global striker, achieving a personal best of 33 goals and 8 assists this season.
Galatasaray leads the Super Lig with 83 points with four matches left, eight points clear of Fenerbahce, their nearest competitor. They have also reached the Turkish Cup final.
