Victor Osimhen Demands €60M Package for Galatasaray Stay — Fans Urged to Stay Realistic
Popular Turkish football commentator Murat Aşık has dropped a bombshell on Galatasaray’s transfer plans — revealing that Victor Osimhen is requesting a staggering €60 million salary package to make his move to the club permanent this summer.
Osimhen, 26, recently completed a stunning loan spell with the Turkish champions, scoring 37 goals across all competitions and cementing his status as one of the most lethal strikers in Europe. But it seems the dream of keeping the Nigerian sensation is becoming a financial nightmare.
💬 “It’s Professional Football, Not Fantasy Football” – Aşık Warns Fans
Speaking on Habersarikirmizi, Aşık revealed Galatasaray have already prepared €25 million to negotiate a deal but insisted Osimhen is asking for more than double what top earners like Kalidou Koulibaly make in Saudi Arabia.
“If he leaves, Galatasaray fans should not complain. This is a professional job,” Aşık said pointedly.
Osimhen has reportedly requested more time to consider his next move, following interest from multiple European clubs including Juventus, Manchester United, and Al Hilal.
💭 OPINION: Osimhen Knows His Worth – And He’s Not Settling
Osimhen's demand might sound outlandish to some, but it's not without precedent. In today’s football economy, a striker with his age, numbers, and Champions League potential commands high value. His request signals that he’s not just chasing goals — he’s chasing legacy and value.
That said, Galatasaray must now choose:
Stretch their financial limits for a short-term boost
Or invest elsewhere and build a future-proof squad
And for the fans? It’s time to keep emotions in check. If Osimhen walks, it's not betrayal — it's business.
