Barcelona are once again weighing up a summer move for Victor Osimhen as they plan for life after Robert Lewandowski, with the Nigerian striker firmly back on the club’s shortlist of attacking targets, footynaija.com reports.
Spanish reports via Haberlisin indicate the Catalan side have revived internal discussions about bringing Osimhen to Camp Nou after being impressed by his explosive impact in Turkey. Since swapping Serie A for Galatasaray, the 27-year-old has continued to deliver goals at an elite rate, quickly becoming one of the most feared forwards in European competition.

Barcelona’s sporting department see him as a perfect fit for their evolving team, a striker with pace to stretch defences, strength to dominate centre-backs and the finishing instinct to convert tight chances. With Lewandowski’s role gradually being reduced as part of the club’s long-term rebuild, Osimhen is viewed as a natural successor capable of leading the frontline for years to come.
However, Galatasaray have little desire to part ways with the man who has powered their latest domestic and European success. Club officials are said to be thrilled with his influence both on and off the pitch and would ideally keep him as the focal point of their project beyond this season.
That said, the Turkish champions are not blind to market realities. Sources suggest they have placed a valuation of around €80 million on Osimhen, who is also on the radar of Arsenal and Juventus.
With a contract running until 2029, Galatasaray hold a strong hand in negotiations, but the coming months could test their resolve if Barcelona formalise their renewed interest.
