Victor Osimhen in demand! Galatasaray chief says 'five of the world’s top clubs' want Napoli striker and reveals when star will make decision on his future

Galatasaray vice president Abdullah Kavukcu says Osimhen, who is on loan from Napoli, "loves" the Turkish team and a permanent transfer to the Super Lig outfit is "not impossible". He did add, however, that five of the world's top clubs are interested in him and the Nigerian will announce his decision on his future plans next month.

He told Sport Mediaset: "Osimhen will announce his decision in April. At the moment, five of the world’s top clubs are interested in him. His arrival here was a dream - he came, and for now, he is playing with us. In January, there was talk of a transfer, but he stayed. He loves Galatasaray very much. Right now, he is the dream of all our rivals. Although we are focused on winning the title, we have not had direct discussions with Victor yet. There is no point in talking about it now. Galatasaray are a top-level club - if it weren’t, Victor wouldn’t have come. His stay at Galatasaray is not as impossible as it may seem."

Osimhen has been one of the most coveted strikers in the world in recent years but despite being linked to Chelsea,Arsenal, and more, he is currently playing at Galatasaray. There may be another almighty battle for the 26-year-old in the summer, though.

Transfer speculation aside, Osimhen is likely to feature for Nigeria away to Rwanda in their latest World Cup qualifier on Friday.
