Galatasaray have turned down a €125 million offer for Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen, underlining their resolve to keep the Super Eagles star despite growing interest from top European clubs.
According to reports from Forza Cimbom, the Turkish champions swiftly rejected the proposal, having earlier dismissed a €120 million approach from Atletico Madrid.
Manchester United, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are all said to be monitoring the 27-year-old, but Galatasaray remain firm on their valuation and are unwilling to negotiate below their asking price.
The club believes Osimhen’s value is reflected in his outstanding performances since joining the Istanbul giants.
The former Napoli forward has registered 59 goals in 74 appearances for Galatasaray. This season alone, he has contributed 15 league goals and five assists in 22 matches, while also recording seven goals and three assists in 10 UEFA Champions League outings before the club exited the competition at the hands of Liverpool in the Round of 16.
