Victor Osimhen Sends Clear Message Amid Arsenal and Chelsea Transfer Interest

Victor Osimhen has sent a clear message ahead of what could be a pivotal summer transfer window, with Arsenal and Chelsea both monitoring his situation.

The Nigerian striker has become a fan favourite at Galatasaray after an impressive loan spell, scoring 37 goals and playing a crucial role in securing the Turkish league title for the third consecutive season.

Osimhen’s impact was immediate and memorable. When he arrived at Galatasaray last summer, fans gathered in huge numbers to welcome him, creating a celebratory atmosphere more akin to winning silverware than a transfer signing. That moment proved symbolic, as Osimhen went on to deliver an outstanding season.

Under manager Okan Buruk, Galatasaray finished the season 11 points clear at the top. Despite only scoring one more goal than their closest rivals Fenerbahce—now led by Jose Mourinho—Galatasaray’s firepower proved decisive. They outscored third-place Samunspor by 36 goals and finished 22 goals ahead of fourth-placed Besiktas.

Osimhen’s contributions were key to that dominance, cementing his status as a hero among supporters. As interest grows from top European clubs, particularly from the Premier League, Galatasaray fans have made it clear they want him to stay.

With Arsenal and Chelsea weighing up their summer plans, Osimhen’s name continues to feature prominently in transfer discussions. However, amid all the speculation, the striker knows exactly where he stands with Galatasaray supporters—a bond that may yet influence his next move in the coming weeks.
