Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has finally broken his silence amid relentless speculation linking him with a potential move away from Turkish Super Lig giants Galatasaray this summer, Footynaija.com reports.
Following another outstanding season at RAMS Park where Osimhen produced 28 goal contributions (22G, 6A) to help Galatasaray win their 26th Super Lig crown, the Nigeria international is understandably on the radar of several top clubs.
Across Europe’s top five leagues, the likes of Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid are clubs credited with interest in acquiring the services of the masked hitman.

Asked recently about the possibility of leaving Galatasaray for any of the aforementioned suitors this summer, Osimhen reiterated his satisfaction with life at the Istanbul based club but stopped just short of categorically ruling out an exit.
“For me, I am happy there,” Osimhen said via a video posted on X (formerly Twitter).
“So, that’s the most important thing but you never know what the future might bring.”
Galatasaray’s stance on Victor Osimhen sale
Despite the mounting external interest in Victor Osimhen and the possibility of raking in massive profits from a potential sale, Galatasaray have made little secret of their desire to keep the Super Eagles talisman at RAMS Park beyond this summer.
With Galatasaray chasing a record-extending 27th Super Lig title and hoping to establish themselves as genuine contenders in next season’s UEFA Champions League, club president Dursun Ozbek is determined to strengthen the squad and build the team’s future around Osimhen.
While Osimhen’s comments do little to quieten the growing transfer storm surrounding him, Galatasaray, under no immediate pressure to part ways with their star man, hold all the cards in this particular situation.
