Galatasaray president Dursun Ozbek has dismissed speculation surrounding Victor Osimhen’s future, insisting the striker will not be sold this summer.
Osimhen has been linked with moves to Real Madrid and Barcelona. However, the club remains firm on keeping their star forward.
“We are not considering selling Osimhen. Osimhen is an important player for Galatasaray,” Ozbek said.
“We are not considering selling an important player in our championship race.”
“Putting a price on someone you don’t intend to sell is like counting your chickens before they hatch.”
Osimhen joined permanently after an initial loan spell from Napoli. He has since become central to the team’s attacking identity.
