Galatasaray Rejects €125M Bid for Victor Osimhen

Galatasaray has rejected a €125 million offer for Nigerian forward Victor Osimhen, reaffirming their determination to hold onto him despite increasing pressure from European clubs ahead of the summer transfer window. The Turkish champions previously turned down a €120 million proposal from Atletico Madrid and bids from Manchester United and Barcelona.

Galatasaray has made it clear that they will not entertain offers below their asking price, as they believe Osimhen's extraordinary output justifies his valuation. The former Napoli striker has scored 59 goals in 74 appearances for Galatasaray, including 15 league goals and five assists in 22 matches this season, as well as seven goals and three assists in 10 UEFA Champions League appearances.

The club's resolve to keep Osimhen is further strengthened by the expected departure of Mauro Icardi, whose contract expires at the end of June, leaving Galatasaray in a precarious position regarding their attacking options.
