Victor Osimhen, whom Galatasaray added to their squad on loan from Napoli during the summer transfer window, has become a fan favorite due to his performance with the yellow-reds. However, a report from the British press has caused concern among Galatasaray fans.
Great Interest in Osimhen
The Nigerian star played a significant role in Galatasaray's leadership during the first half of the Süper Lig season.
The yellow-reds gained a major advantage by finishing the first half 8 points ahead of their closest rival, Fenerbahçe.
While Osimhen's performance has caught the attention of the world press, the British newspaper The Sun has put forward a surprise transfer claim.
RASHFORD-OSIMHEN SWAP ON THE AGENDA
According to the report, Napoli manager Antonio Conte wants to add Marcus Rashford, who plays for Manchester United but whose future is uncertain, to his squad.
It is stated that Rashford has rejected offers of 2.7 million pounds per month from Saudi Arabia and wants to continue his career in Europe.
Following this development, Manchester United is planning to swap Victor Osimhen, who has caught Napoli's attention, for Rashford.
The Nigerian player has a 75 million euro release clause in his contract with Napoli. It is suggested that an agreement between the two clubs could be finalized in January.
FIRST CHOICE IS GYÖKERES BUT...
It is claimed that Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim's first choice was Viktor Gyökeres, who plays for his former team, Sporting.
However, it was stated that the English club has abandoned this plan due to Gyökeres' high cost and is focusing on Osimhen.
OSIMHEN'S SITUATION UNCERTAIN
While it is noted that Rashford, who rejected Saudi Arabian clubs, is open to a transfer to Napoli, it is recorded that Osimhen has not yet made a decision on this matter.
Napoli recalls that Osimhen was left out of the squad and sent on loan to Galatasaray because he rejected Saudi offers during the summer transfer window.
OSIMHEN'S POST CREATED A QUESTION MARK
On the day he transferred to Galatasaray, Osimhen shared the enthusiastic welcome he received from fans at the airport on social media, which received great acclaim. This post by the 26-year-old player became an unforgettable memory for the yellow-red fans.
