Man Utd, PSG-Linked Standout Ready to Stay at Galatasaray Amid €16M-per-Year Offer | OneFootball

PSG had been monitoring Victor Osimhen for over a year. As the transfer window approached, speculation around his future intensified.

According to a previous report from GIVE ME SPORT, Manchester United grew increasingly concerned about PSG’s pursuit. The French club were seen as the frontrunners to sign him.

The report stated that PSG was prepared to trigger Osimhen’s £63 million release clause. Moreover, they were also ready to meet his wage demands. As a result, PSG positioned themselves as a serious contender for the 26-year-old striker.

Meanwhile, Fichajes recently reported that Al-Hilal made a significant push to lure Osimhen. The Saudi club have offered a three-year deal worth €160 million net, with an option for a fourth year. That amounted to €40 million per season—nearly four times Osimhen’s earnings at Napoli.

In addition, Al-Hilal are targeting AC Milan left-back Theo Hernández to reinforce Simone Inzaghi’s squad.

Corriere dello Sport now reports that Osimhen wants to stay at Galatasaray. The Turkish side has pulled out all the stops to convince him—offering a €16 million per year salary—and the striker has now given the green light.

The next step is for Galatasaray to reach an agreement with Napoli, who are standing firm on his €75 million release clause and won’t budge on the price.

Recently, La Gazzetta dello Sport reported that Manchester United remain firmly in the mix. The Italian outlet describes the club as having a “burning magnetism” in their pursuit of Osimhen and still believe they can land him despite their European absence.

Juventus have also entered the race, while Al-Hilal—despite previously being turned down—remain in the picture with their offer still standing.

Galatasaray, too, are hoping to bring Osimhen in on a permanent deal after his loan stint in Istanbul, though they appear to be long shots in a crowded field of suitors.
