Osimhen insists transfer talks have to wait

Speculations have continued over the future of Victor Osimhen, but the striker himself has maintained he will not be discussing this until the season is over with Galatasaray in the summer.

Osimhen has lately been linked with Premier League heavyweights, from Manchester United to Arsenal.

However, the Napoli striker, who is on loan at Turkish champions Galatasaray, has said he hopes to win the league crown in Turkey and it is only then that he will decide on what is next for him.

“Osimhen will not discuss any transfer until the end of the season,” journalist Buchi Laba, who is close to the player, posted on X

“Osimhen is focused on getting the fifth star (a league championship).”

The 26-year-old striker still has a year left on his Napoli contract.

His release clause of 75 Million Euros is applicable to only clubs outside Italy.
