Turkish giants Galatasaray are set for a blockbuster meeting with Victor Osimhen next week as they attempt to secure the Nigerian goal machine in what could be one of the biggest transfers of the summer window. Eyes Of Lagos reports,

According to top Turkish outlet Hurriyet, officials from the Super Lig champions are preparing for face-to-face talks with the 26-year-old striker—either in Nigeria or Europe—to determine his interest in making the switch from Napoli.

💰 Big Money Move in the Works

With Osimhen’s release clause no longer active, any potential transfer will require fresh negotiations with Napoli. However, Galatasaray are ready with financial backing—all that remains is Osimhen’s nod of approval.

The club has prioritised Osimhen as their No. 1 transfer target, and his decision will dictate their entire summer strategy. If he agrees to join, Galatasaray will shift focus to reinforcing other parts of the squad. If not, the Osimhen budget could be diverted to strengthen multiple positions.

🇳🇬 Why Galatasaray Want Osimhen

Victor Osimhen is no stranger to Turkish football—having spent last season on loan at Galatasaray, where he scored an incredible 26 goals in 30 matches, helping them win both the Turkish Super Lig title and the domestic cup.

He also holds global recognition after becoming Serie A top scorer in 2022/23, powering Napoli to their first league title in 33 years.

🏴‍☠️ Premier League Still on His Mind?

Despite Galatasaray’s interest and past success with the club, Osimhen remains cautious, reportedly waiting for a concrete offer from the Premier League. Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester United have been frequently linked, but none have yet submitted a bid that meets Napoli’s expectations or Osimhen’s personal ambitions.

📅 All Eyes on July 14

A final decision is expected on or before July 14. If Osimhen gives the green light, Galatasaray will immediately open formal talks with Napoli to finalize the transfer.
