Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen has described his historic move to Galatasaray as a deeply emotional and defining moment in his career, expressing immense gratitude to everyone involved in making the transfer possible.
Osimhen, 26, officially joined the Turkish giants after Galatasaray triggered his €75 million release clause at Napoli, making him the most expensive player in Turkish football history. The Nigerian international was unveiled on Wednesday to a thunderous reception from thousands of passionate fans in Istanbul.
In his first interview since the move, Osimhen said Galatasaray offers him the ideal platform to thrive both professionally and personally.
“This is more than just a transfer for me. Galatasaray is a place where I feel I can truly express myself on and off the pitch,” he said. “The love and energy from the fans and everyone at the club already feel like home.”
He also took a moment to acknowledge the key figures who made the blockbuster deal possible, saying their belief in him has been both humbling and motivating.
