Galatasaray told how to cope if Osimhen leaves

Ali Ece, a Turkish football expert gave Galatasaray a solution to their Victor Osimhen dilemma, telling them how to replace the Nigerian who could leave the club this summer. 

The Cim-Bom's desire to sign Victor Osimhen permanently is a poorly kept secret, with the president of the club, Okan Buruk revealing that they were working hard at it. 

However, while Osimhen has fallen in love with the club and their fans, his ambitions could take him out of Turkey. As Pulse Sports reported, he has offers from Al Hilal, and Manchester United remain keen. 

Many within Turkish football believe the announcement would have been made already if Osimhen was going to remain at Galatasaray. Hence, it is becoming increasingly likely that he would leave. 

Ece advised the Cim-Bom on how to deal with the eventuality. “Mario Gomez had the same impact on Beşiktaş as Osimhen did on Galatasaray,” Ece said. “If you are not going to keep Osimhen in the team or sign someone like him, you will find a player of that calibre behind him to carry the goal-scoring load of the attack.”

Meanwhile, Juventus who were previously keen on signing Osimhen are now said to have pulled out. Pulse Sports reported that the Old Lady’s interest has dissipated upon the impending exit of sporting Cristiano Giuntoli who was pushing for the move.
