Victor Osimhen is not heading to Al Hilal — at least not yet. Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk has dismissed claims that the Nigerian striker has agreed a mega-money move to Saudi Arabia, insisting the player is still enjoying life in Turkey.

  • Reports claimed Osimhen had agreed to join Al Hilal for €120 million over three years
  • Buruk said the rumour is “not true” and no decision has been made
  • Osimhen has scored 36 goals and 8 assists this season with Galatasaray
  • Napoli still owns his contract, with a €75m release clause
  • Premier League clubs like Chelsea and Man Utd remain interested

Despite swirling transfer rumours and eye-watering Saudi offers, Osimhen’s future remains undecided. While his loan spell in Turkey has been stellar, with fans pleading for him to stay, it’s ultimately the striker who holds the cards. What’s clear is that he’s in no rush to leave, and Galatasaray is hoping to use that to their advantage.

Osimhen’s next chapter isn’t written yet. Whether he returns to Napoli, joins the Premier League, or heads to Saudi Arabia, the striker’s form and calm demeanour suggest he’ll take his time and weigh all his options carefully.
