Galatasaray president, Dursun Ozbek, has clarified that striker Victor Osimhen does not have a release clause in his contract with the Turkish giants.
Osimhen has been the subject of transfer speculation in recent weeks, with European heavyweights Juventus and Bayern Munich reportedly monitoring his situation.
Juventus had previously tried to secure the services of the former Lille OSC striker from Napoli two years ago.
Ozbek Speaks On Osimhen’s Future
Ozbek explained that there is no clause in the forward’s contract that would allow any club to automatically trigger a transfer for a fixed fee.
“There is no release clause in Osimhen’s contract. He is an extremely successful footballer who will serve Galatasaray for many years,” Ozbek told Fanatik.
“Perhaps the amount was considered high on the day we signed him, but today the prevailing view in football circles is that the transfer fee was low and the player’s value is much higher.”
The 27-year-old initially joined Galatasaray on loan from Napoli in September 2024 before the Turkish club made the deal permanent the following year for €75 million.
Since arriving in Istanbul, the Nigeria international has been prolific, scoring 53 goals in 65 appearances in all competitions.
Osimhen is currently contracted to Galatasaray until June 2029.
