Galatasaray offers Osimhen new contract as Chelsea weigh move

Chelsea have been closely following Napoli striker Victor Osimhen’s situation as the summer transfer window unfolds. According to Fabrizio Romano, the Turkish club Galatasaray has formally sent Osimhen a contract proposal after a successful loan spell this past season.

The 26-year-old Nigerian striker impressed at Galatasaray, scoring 37 goals and showing his value in the forward line. Despite interest from Al Hilal in the Saudi Pro League, Osimhen remains focused on staying in more competitive leagues.

Chelsea’s pursuit of Osimhen last year ended without a transfer, as the striker declined a move to Saudi Arabia and the window closed. This summer, Chelsea continue their search for attacking reinforcements even after signing Liam Delap.

The situation remains fluid as Osimhen considers his options carefully. Chelsea’s appeal lies in the challenge and exposure offered by the Premier League. Romano notes, “a move to the Middle East is not something that the striker is looking to entertain,” signaling that Chelsea still have a chance if they engage actively.

Chelsea face competition from Galatasaray and others, but the club’s Premier League status could be a decisive factor for Osimhen’s next step. The coming weeks will be crucial as all parties look to reach an agreement.
