Striker Victor Osimhen is planning to continue his career with Galatasaray. After a successful start to the season, the 27-year-old Nigerian appears to have no intention of leaving the Turkish club.
Osimhen has been in prolific form, scoring four goals and providing one assist in just two Super Lig appearances. Galatasaray completed his permanent signing from Napoli this summer for a fee of 75 million euros following an initial loan spell.
A key factor in Osimhen's desire to stay is the potential reinforcement of the attacking line. Galatasaray is reportedly interested in AC Milan winger Rafael Leao, and the Nigerian forward is said to be very positive about the prospect of playing alongside the Portuguese international.
Should the club succeed in signing Leao, they could form a formidable attacking partnership. This move would likely encourage Osimhen to remain with the team where he has already established himself as a central figure and primary leader.
