Victor Osimhen’s Galatasaray adventure may be short-lived as Arsenal and Juventus closely monitor the Nigerian striker’s situation. The 27-year-old, who joined the Turkish side for €75 million last year, has already impressed in Turkey with 14 goals in 20 appearances.
While Arsenal initially eyed Julian Alvarez, Osimhen has emerged as a strong alternative for the Premier League giants. Juventus, under coach Luciano Spalletti, also see him as a key signing, recalling their successful partnership at Napoli that led Osimhen to a Serie A Golden Boot and Napoli’s historic title in 2023.
Galatasaray’s financial commitment makes a move challenging, but a €100 million bid could trigger negotiations, especially if Osimhen pushes for a return to a top European league. His stellar international form—4 goals and 2 assists at the 2025 AFCON—cements his status as one of Africa’s top forwards.
Fans across Europe are watching closely as two of the continent’s elite clubs position themselves to sign Nigeria’s rising star. The transfer window promises fireworks if Osimhen’s next destination is revealed.
