Victor Osimhen, the Super Eagles striker, is poised to make his debut in the Turkish Super Lig this Saturday. The Nigerian forward, who joined Galatasaray from Napoli after his moves to Chelsea and Al-Ahli fell through, will be featured in their upcoming match.
Galatasaray recently confirmed that they will pay Osimhen €6 million (£5 million, $7.9 million) in wages for the 2024-25 season. Notably, this deal does not include an option or obligation to purchase the player.
Osimhen, who has been away on international duty with Nigeria for the AFCON 2025 qualifiers against Benin and Rwanda, will return to Turkey in time to start training with his new teammates. He is scheduled to make his first appearance for Galatasaray on September 14, when the team faces Rizespor at Rams Park.
In an exciting twist, just a week later, Osimhen could potentially face Fenerbahce, managed by José Mourinho, adding to the anticipation surrounding his debut.
