Victor Osimhen remains one of the hottest names in the transfer market this summer – and for good reason.
Cast aside by Napoli and sent out on loan to Galatasaray, the Nigerian forward has produced a career-best season in Turkey, netting 36 goals and registering 7 assists in 40 appearances.
It’s been a remarkable resurgence, with the 26-year-old proving his worth as one of the most clinical forwards in Europe.

Galatasaray have been desperate to keep him, although that remains rather unlikely.
They lack the financial firepower to match Osimhen’s market value or his personal terms.
That’s opened the door for several suitors.
Manchester United have been long-time admirers and are considering him as a serious option to lead their frontline next season.
United officials have already held talks with Osimhen’s representatives this month, and despite financial limitations, they continue to weigh the possibility of a deal, especially as their need for a reliable No.9 intensifies.
But competition is fierce. Juventus remain interested, and Premier League rivals Chelsea are also reportedly monitoring his situation closely.
Now, Osimhen’s future has taken another dramatic turn.
Al-Hilal offer Victor Osimhen €120 million contract
As reported by FootMercato, Saudi giants Al-Hilal have launched a major offensive to sign him, offering a jaw-dropping €120 million contract over three years to lure the striker away from Europe.
The offer would make Osimhen one of the highest-paid players on the planet.
A deal too big to ignore.
Al-Hilal are preparing for a Club World Cup clash against Real Madrid on June 18 and are eager to bolster their squad ahead of the tournament.

Their ambition, backed by huge financial muscle, could see them leapfrog the European elite in the race to sign Osimhen.
That’s unless the striker stands firm on his desire to remain in top-tier European competition.
United, meanwhile, are still trying to manage a delicate wage structure.
With Casemiro and Rashford already among the highest earners, adding another marquee salary could complicate matters further.
One thing is clear – Osimhen holds all the cards, and with the window about to heat up, his next move could set the tone for the entire summer market.
