Galatasaray insider claims Manchester United made an offer of N113b to sign Osimhen

Kağan Dursun, a Galatasaray transfer insider, has revealed that Manchester United recently made a substantial bid to secure the services of Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen.  

Osimhen, who scored his 14th goal across all competitions for Galatasaray on Friday night, has been a standout performer for the Turkish giants.

His exploits have reportedly caught the attention of several top European clubs,  who are eager to bolster their attack under manager Ruben Amorim.  

Despite Osimhen publicly stating his desire to remain at Galatasaray until the summer, the rumours of a potential transfer persist.

In an interview with habersarikirmizi, Dursun claimed that Manchester United tabled a verbal offer of €70 million (₦113 billion) to Napoli for the Nigeria international.  

"Manchester United recently made a verbal offer of 70 million Euros to Napoli for Osimhen. The club came to Istanbul to convince Osimhen but came back empty-handed," Dursun revealed.  

However, the efforts of the English club reportedly fell short, as Osimhen remains committed to Galatasaray for now.  

Dursun further clarified that Osimhen has a January exit clause, which does not restrict him to playing only for Galatasaray.  

"Osimhen has a January exit clause, there is no clause stating that he will only play for Galatasaray. Osimhen's promise is clear, if you can convince him, do it," Dursun added, leaving the door open for future negotiations.  

Osimhen has been instrumental for Galatasaray this season, and his contributions have cemented his reputation as one of Europe’s most sought-after strikers.
