The long-awaited transfer saga of Victor Osimhen has finally come to an end, as Galatasaray announced the permanent signing of the Nigerian superstar striker on Wednesday.
After a successful loan spell last season, Osimhen has committed to the Turkish champions on a deal that is set to be a major coup for the club.
Osimhen was instrumental in Galatasaray’s dominance of Turkish football last season, leading the club to the domestic double by winning the Super Lig and Turkish Cup.
He scored an impressive 37 goals in 41 appearances across all competitions, winning the hearts of Galatasaray’s passionate supporters. His impressive performance on the pitch has made him a fan favorite, and his permanent signing is a significant boost to the team’s prospects.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Galatasaray will pay Napoli €75 million for Osimhen’s transfer, with potential additional fees based on his performance.
The deal is a significant investment for the club, but one that is expected to pay dividends in the long run.
Galatasaray is celebrating Osimhen’s signing with an entertaining social media campaign, including a plane tracker as he travels to Istanbul.
The club is clearly excited about the prospect of having Osimhen on board permanently, and fans are eagerly awaiting his arrival.
Galatasaray is currently in the midst of their preseason, which they will conclude on Saturday with a friendly match against Lazio.
The team’s Super Lig campaign begins on August 8, with a match away from home against Gaziantep. With Osimhen on board, Galatasaray will be looking to make a strong statement in the league and compete for major honors.
