Turkish Champions Galatasaray have rejected a massive bid of €150 million tabled by Saudi Pro-League side Al-Hilal to sign top striker Victor Osimhen.
According to reports by Fanatik Al-Hilal president Prince Nawaf bin Saad, personally made the contact with the club and also had an offer of €50 million annual salary package for Osimhen. But Galatasaray president Dursun Özbek and the club management refused to be swayed by the figures which could have made them an instant profit off the €75 million they paid Napoli in 2024 to make Osimhen’s loan move permanent.
Özbek noted that the player is not for sale this season as he is central to their domestic and European campaigns.
Moreso Osimhen is not keen on playing in the Saudi Pro-League yet since he is yet to reach the peak of his career and would prefer a move to the Premier League or other top European side.
Arsenal are reported to be interested in Osimhen but face a tricky negotiation, if they finally make a move.
