Galatasaray president Dursun Özbek has reiterated that Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen is not for sale this summer, amid reported interest from Arsenal and Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal, Prompt News Online reports.
Osimhen has been linked with a move to Premier League champions Arsenal, with reports claiming the Gunners are prepared to include Gabriel Martinelli and Ethan Nwaneri in a potential deal.
Al-Hilal are also reportedly keeping tabs on the Nigeria international.
Despite the growing speculation surrounding Osimhen’s future, Özbek has firmly ruled out the possibility of Galatasaray allowing their star striker to leave.
“What I said for Barış Alper Yılmaz, I am now saying more strongly for Osimhen. No matter how much money it is, I am not selling Osimhen,” Özbek told 343 Digital, as quoted by Habersarikirmizi.
Osimhen has already made a strong start to the new Turkish Super Lig season, netting a brace in Okan Buruk’s side’s 2-2 draw against Arca Çorum FK.
