Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen has officially signed with Turkish giants Galatasaray.
The deal, finalized today, sees Osimhen joining the club on a loan from Napoli.
Osimhen’s transfer to Galatasaray comes after a challenging summer, during which negotiations with other clubs, including Al-Ahli and Chelsea, fell through.
The 25-year-old forward will wear the number 45 jersey for Galatasaray and is set to play in the Turkish Süper Lig until June 2025. The Turkish club has agreed to cover his annual salary of €11 million for the duration of the loan.
This move reunites Osimhen with former Napoli teammate Dries Mertens, who played a role in encouraging the transfer.
Upon his arrival in Istanbul, Osimhen was warmly welcomed by Galatasaray fans, expressing his excitement about joining the club and his eagerness to contribute on the field.
