Galatasaray making clear <\/a>they have no intention to part ways with Osimhen, reports suggest that Arsenal had been offered the chance to include Osimhen in a possible deal involving Martinelli and Nwaneri. That report came after Galatasaray showed interest in Martinelli.<\/p>\nThe situation is unusual because Arsenal are the reigning Premier League champions and have already strengthened their squad this summer.<\/p>\n
Mikel Arteta’s side have signed Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle United and Christos Tzolis from Club Brugge, among other additions. The Gunners are still looking at attacking options as they prepare for the new Premier League season.<\/p>\n
Tottenham have also been linked with Osimhen. Earlier this month, reports said Galatasaray rejected a \u20ac60m offer from Spurs for the Nigeria international. The Turkish club’s decision made it clear that signing the Nigerian would require a major financial commitment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nVictor Osimhen.

The striker’s wages also make any Premier League move difficult. Galatasaray’s official announcement when they signed Osimhen permanently in July 2025 stated that he would receive a net guaranteed salary of \u20ac15m per season, plus a \u20ac1m loyalty bonus and \u20ac5m per season for image rights. That contract runs for four years.<\/p>\n
Osimhen has already built a strong relationship with Galatasaray supporters. In March, after a Champions League win over Liverpool, he said: \u201cGalatasaray fans and I are a family.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\nOsimhen’s latest answer therefore gives neither side a clear victory. Galatasaray can point to his commitment to his work and his close bond with the club. Arsenal and Tottenham can point to his refusal to rule out what may happen later.<\/p>\n
The timing also matters. With the summer transfer window still open, Osimhen knows that offers can change quickly.<\/p>\n
The former Napoli forward is valued at \u20ac75 million but Galatasaray could seek double that figure before sanctioning his departure from Istanbul.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
