Why It Matters
Osimhen was transferred from Napoli to Galatasaray in 2025 and has a contract until 2029.
It has been claimed that Galatasaray's Nigerian star Victor Osimhen has re-entered Atletico Madrid's transfer agenda.
ATLETICO MADRID PUT OSIMHEN ON ITS AGENDA AGAIN
According to information from the Spanish press, Atletico Madrid wanted to add Victor Osimhen to its squad during the last summer transfer window. At that time, no progress was made in the evaluations for the Nigerian football player, who was on the agenda with a transfer fee of approximately 75 million euros, due to financial conditions.
It was stated that Diego Simeone wanted to increase his offensive options in the second half of the season and saw Osimhen as an important candidate in this direction. The star football player, who stands out with his speed, runs behind the defense and finishing in the penalty area, continues to attract the attention of European clubs with his performance.
Osimhen, who made an effective start to the 2026-2027 season, scored 6 goals and 3 assists in 6 matches in the Super League. These statistics of the Nigerian star were effective in Atletico Madrid's coming to the fore again in its transfer plans.
On the other hand, it has been claimed that Osimhen has been giving warm messages to Barcelona in recent days. This development further stirred up transfer rumors about the future of the star football player.
GALATASARAY'S EXPECTATIONS ARE HIGH
It is stated that the biggest obstacle in Victor Osimhen's transfer is Galatasaray's transfer expectation. The yellow-reds added the Nigerian striker to their squad from Napoli in 2025 for 75 million euros.
It is stated that Osimhen, who has a contract until June 2029, does not have a fixed release clause in his contract. Therefore, the possible transfer of the star football player will depend on the outcome of the negotiations with Galatasaray.
Osimhen's annual earnings are also one of the important issues for Atletico Madrid. It is reported that the Nigerian football player's contract includes an annual net guarantee fee of 15 million euros, as well as a 1 million euro loyalty bonus and 5 million euros of income from image rights.
It is a matter of curiosity how Osimhen, who was previously claimed to be interested in playing in the Spanish LaLiga and may reduce his salary for the transfer, will approach Atletico Madrid's offer this time.
EXCHANGE FORMULA FROM ATLETICO MADRID
It was noted that Atletico Madrid, which wants to transfer Victor Osimhen, is considering different formulas to reduce the cost of approximately 70 million euros.
It has been suggested that the Spanish team may make an offer to Galatasaray that includes performance-related bonuses or include some football players in transfer negotiations. Thus, it is aimed to cover part of the transfer fee burden with different payment conditions.
However, it remains unclear whether Galatasaray will be willing to send its star striker, in which it invested 75 million euros, for a lower price.
THERE ARE CLAIMERS FROM EUROPE
Clubs such as Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham are also mentioned among Atletico Madrid's transfer rivals. It is stated that Saudi Arabian teams are also interested in the Nigerian striker.
All eyes are now on the interim transfer period that will start in January 2027. It is said that if Simeone insists on his request for Osimhen, Atletico Madrid may knock on Galatasaray's door with an official offer.
