Galatasaray President Dursun Özbek has declared the club will not sell striker Victor Osimhen, despite a reported €150million offer from Atletico Madrid. Speaking to Forza Cimbom (via Fotomaç), Özbek said they did not buy Osimhen to sell him, emphasizing the Nigerian’s deep love for the club and his desire to remain for many years. Osimhen, who joined Galatasaray from Napoli, has been instrumental in securing back-to-back Turkish Super Lig titles and continues to attract interest from Europe’s elite, including Real Madrid, Paris Saint‑Gen, Barcelona, Chelsea, Juventus and Manchester United.

The decision means Osimhen will likely lead Galatasaray’s attack for the upcoming season, providing stability to a squad aiming to defend its domestic title and make a deeper run in European competitions. For Nigerian fans following his career abroad, the update confirms he remains a key figure in Turkey’s top league, where his goal‑scoring form directly impacts both club performance and his national team prospects.

Will Osimhen’s continued presence galvanize Galatasaray’s title challenge, or will other European giants return with improved offers in the next transfer window?
