At the moment, five of the world\u2019s top clubs are interested in him. His arrival here was a dream \u2013 he came, and for now, he is playing with us.

Although we are focused on winning the title, we have not had direct discussions with Victor yet.<\/p>\n<p data-marker-percentage=\"90\">\u201cThere is no point in talking about it now. Galatasaray are a top-level club \u2013 if it weren\u2019t, Victor wouldn\u2019t have come.
