2 Min Read

Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, has made it clear that he has no interest in a potential switch to Italian giants Juventus, stating his preference to remain at Galatasaray.

The 26-year-old Nigerian forward, currently on a high-profile loan spell at the Turkish club, has been at the center of intense transfer talks as the summer window heats up.

Despite the swirling speculation, Osimhen has reportedly ruled out a return to Serie A with the Bianconeri.

Galatasaray insider, Yakup Çınar, shared the player’s stance, quoting Osimhen’s firm response to Juventus’ interest.

“Juventus wants me, but Osimhen says, ‘I would rather stay at Galatasaray than go to Juventus,’” Çınar revealed during an appearance on the Yeni Açık YouTube channel, as reported by Habersarikirmizi.

While Osimhen’s future remains uncertain, indications suggest he could leave Istanbul this summer, with possible destinations including the English Premier League or Saudi Arabia.

Çınar noted that the Nigerian star has not yet officially communicated his final decision to Galatasaray.

The Turkish champions are reportedly eager to secure his services permanently from Napoli after his impressive run in their league-winning campaign.

Adding more context, Çınar stated that Osimhen has attracted attention from Saudi Pro League sides with sizable offers, though no formal discussions have taken place between the player and Galatasaray.

“This is information I received directly from a source very close to Osimhen,” he added.
