Galatasaray has rejected a massive offer from Saudi Arabia's Al-Hilal to sign Victor Osimhen, despite the Nigerian striker's outstanding performance with the team since the start of the season.
Victor Osimhen
Club: Galatasaray
According to the Turkish newspaper "Fanatik," a formal offer from Al-Hilal reached Galatasaray to sign Osimhen for 130 million euros, but club president Dursun Özbek is not considering approving the player's departure.
Osimhen scored four goals and provided one assist in his first two matches for Galatasaray this season, leading the club's management to expect his value to increase further in the coming period.
Galatasaray's management believes that Osimhen could attract offers ranging between 150 and 200 million euros next summer, and therefore does not wish to part with him at this time.
Osimhen played in only 33 matches for Galatasaray last season, but he scored 22 goals and provided 8 assists, directly contributing to 30 goals and playing a prominent role in the team's league title.
Osimhen is preparing to continue his season with Galatasaray, as the club insists on keeping him, hoping to maintain his excellent form and increase his market value before considering any future offers.
Osimhen's name has been linked with a move to Al-Hilal multiple times this summer, but the Turkish club remains committed to retaining its striker.
