Galatasaray have no plans to sell Victor Osimhen this summer, club insider Haluk Yürekli has said. 

Speaking on the 343 Digital YouTube channel, in comments reported by habersarikirmizi, Yürekli described the Nigerian striker as untouchable for the Turkish Super Lig champions. He said the Istanbul club will not consider offers for the forward, regardless of the size of the bid.

Yürekli stated that a departure would only be discussed if Osimhen personally asks to leave. Should that happen, he said, Galatasaray would set an opening valuation of €150 million, before entering negotiations. Osimhen, 27, is under contract until the end of the 2028-2029 season and does not have a release clause.

He moved permanently from Napoli last summer for €75 million following a loan spell. This season he scored 22 goals and provided eight assists in 33 appearances across all competitions.

The comments come as the former African Footballer of the Year continues to be linked with major European clubs, including Real Madrid, Arsenal, Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain. Galatasaray, who won the domestic title and featured in the Champions League knockout rounds, have repeatedly positioned Osimhen as central to their squad.
