Victor Osimhen has been at the heart of transfer rumors all summer, but the Nigerian striker appears to have made his decision.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Osimhen is eager to turn his successful loan stint at Galatasaray into a permanent move.
The Super Eagles star has reportedly accepted a lucrative €16 million-per-year offer, according to CalcioMercato, signaling his intention to stay with the Turkish champions.
Galatasaray’s push to secure Osimhen permanently has gained momentum, with club sponsors ready to help meet his €75 million release clause at Napoli.
This choice might be unpopular among fans of Manchester United and Liverpool, who are in the market for a new striker. Ruben Amorim's Red Devils have been strongly linked to the 26-year-old but it appears they may have to look elsewhere.
Osimhen's reported choice is a sound one, as Galatasaray offers Champions League football, guaranteed playing time, and an adoring fanbase that reveres and adores him.
Most importantly, after the ex-Lille man scored 37 goals in 41 appearances while on loan last season, the fans know exactly what to expect, this time on a permanent basis.
