The 26-year-old, who is coming off a prolific season on loan at Galatasaray where he scored 37 goals and registered 8 assists in 41 appearances, is attracting serious attention across Europe and the Middle East as clubs scramble for his signature in the summer transfer window.

Speaking during an interview on YouTube with media personality Daddy Freeze, Osimhen admitted there is strong interest from multiple clubs, but stressed that he is currently focused on resting and reflecting on his performance.

“You know this is what happens when the season ends and the summer transfer negotiations begin. There are many clubs that want me, but right now I am focusing on holidays to enjoy myself,” he said.

“While I am enjoying myself, I remember my season with Galatasaray. I look at the goals I scored, I see my mistakes. This has really helped me grow both as a footballer and as a man. Hopefully, very soon, the decision would come from me," he added.

Osimhen’s calm but deliberate response comes amid speculation that Al-Hilal is preparing a lucrative offer to lure him to Saudi Arabia, while Juventus are reportedly keen to strengthen their attack with his proven goalscoring prowess.

Galatasaray, impressed by his impact last season, are also pushing for a permanent deal although financial constraints may hinder their chances.

The Nigerian international is expected to make a final decision before pre-season camps open next month.
