Turkish football expert Devrim Zengi has stated that no European club can compete with the lucrative salary package that Galatasaray is offering to Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen.
The Nigerian international has become one of the most sought-after players in the current transfer window after an outstanding season with the Turkish giants.
In an interview with Habersarikirmizi, Zengi explained that many European clubs are reluctant to pursue Osimhen due to his upcoming international commitment at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, which will take place later this year.
“This year, the Africa Cup of Nations will take place for about a month, and Osimhen is expected to participate,” Zengi said.
“That means he could miss 4–5 matches, and some clubs are reluctant to sign players who will be absent for that duration.”
Despite this, Zengi expressed confidence that Osimhen would remain at Galatasaray, stating that a decision should be finalised within a few days.
“No matter how much European clubs offer, they simply cannot match Galatasaray’s salary package,” he added.
“He has already ruled out a move to Saudi Arabia, and his family is not in favor of it either.”
Osimhen’s future continues to be a major topic during the summer transfer window, with clubs like Liverpool reportedly considering ambitious moves to acquire the prolific forward.
