Galatasaray VP Kavukcu Confirms Club’s Commitment To Keeping Osimhen

Galatasaray Vice-President Abdullah Kavukcu has revealed that the Turkish club is fully committed to keeping Victor Osimhen, regardless of the financial cost involved.

Kavukcu confirmed that the club is prepared to activate Osimhen’s release clause and cover his wages, as they look to secure the striker’s future at the club beyond his current loan deal.

Osimhen, 27, joined Galatasaray on a season-long loan from Serie A side Napoli last year. During his time with the Turkish giants, the Super Eagles forward impressed with 36 goals in 40 appearances, helping Gala secure both the Super Lig and the Turkish Cup.

As he looks ahead to next season, Osimhen has attracted significant interest from several top European clubs, sparking speculation about his future. However, Galatasaray is determined to retain his services.

“We talked to my president about Osimhen in January,” Kavukcu told A Spor. “We told Osimhen in January, ‘We want you very much; don’t go anywhere. We are working to get your transfer.’”

Kavukcu further emphasized the club’s efforts to keep the striker, saying, “We are developing projects for this. We developed them to sit at that table, and we are at that table right now. We are ready to get his transfer and pay the salaries he will receive from Europe.”

With Galatasaray’s commitment clear, all eyes will now be on Osimhen’s decision as he evaluates his options for next season.
