Riera Tips Osimhen for Big Move After Record-Breaking Galatasaray Season
Victor Osimhen is once again the name on everyone’s lips — and for good reason. After scoring a jaw-dropping 36 goals and providing eight assists in just 40 appearances for Galatasaray, the Nigerian forward is at the heart of this summer’s transfer buzz.
Former Galatasaray star Albert Riera has now weighed in, acknowledging that top clubs across Europe — including Chelsea — are actively monitoring Osimhen following his explosive season.
“Every player who plays good and great football has many suitors,” Riera said in an interview with Radyospor, as reported by Habersarikirmizi.
“The decision is entirely Osimhen’s. If he leaves, Galatasaray will understand. But if he stays, fans will be thrilled.”
⚽ A Golden Year That Turned Heads
Osimhen’s loan spell at Galatasaray has been nothing short of iconic. His lethal finishing, physical presence, and game intelligence powered the Turkish giants to a historic campaign, and in doing so, he’s reignited interest from the European elite.
Whether it’s a Premier League challenge with Chelsea, a return to Serie A, or another top destination, one thing is clear — Osimhen is hot property.
💬 OPINION: The Ball Is in Osimhen’s Court — And That’s a Power Move
In today’s football landscape, it’s not often that a player holds all the cards — but Victor Osimhen does. After proving himself again at a club steeped in pressure and expectation, he’s now earned the right to choose his next chapter on his own terms.
Should he return to Galatasaray, he’ll continue building a legacy in Istanbul. But if he opts for a new challenge, he’s more than earned that leap. Either way, Nigeria is proud, and the football world is watching closely.
🇳🇬 A National Treasure
For Nigeria, Osimhen's journey is more than football — it's a symbol of resilience, excellence, and world-class ambition. He’s not just representing a club; he’s representing a continent, and every goal he scores writes a new line in that powerful story.
Wherever he lands next, one thing is certain: Victor Osimhen isn’t done yet — he’s just getting started.
