Galatasaray has officially announced the signing of Nigerian forward Victor Osimhen on a season-long loan from Serie A champions SSC Napoli. The club unveiled Osimhen in a vibrant video shared across their social media platforms, set to a catchy track by American music icon Usher.
The video showcased Osimhen’s arrival in Istanbul, capturing the excitement surrounding his transfer. Galatasaray’s post read, “Masquerade with a special guest. Osimhen is here,” signaling a significant addition to their squad. In the clip, Osimhen, known for his distinctive mask, confidently stated, “We are the best,” while gesturing toward the Europa League trophy, indicating his ambitious goals for the season ahead. He then placed his iconic mask on a table, symbolizing the start of his journey with the club.
As part of the deal, Galatasaray confirmed that Osimhen would earn a net seasonal salary of €6 million during his loan period. He arrived in Turkey on Monday after an agreement was reached between the Turkish club and Napoli.
