Galatasaray is evaluating forward options as questions continue around Victor Osimhen’s future at the club, Turkish reporter Burhan Can Terzi said via Habersarikirmizi.
Speaking this week in Istanbul, Can Terzi stated that the club “is interested in someone who can beat Osimhen,” adding that the target “is not Bruno Fernandes” and “he’s not at the World Cup right now.” The comments come during the 2026 summer transfer window, with Osimhen under contract at Galatasaray until 2029 after joining permanently last year in a €75 million deal.
Can Terzi previously reported that Galatasaray’s shortlist includes Aston Villa’s Jhon Duran and Paris Saint-Germain’s Randal Kolo Muani as strikers to partner and support Osimhen in attack.
Management is said to favor Duran due to cost, according to the same report. The search follows months of speculation linking Osimhen with Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Barcelona and other European clubs. Galatasaray vice-president Abdullah Kavukcu has publicly set a valuation of up to €150 million for the Nigerian international.
