Victor Osimhen has responded to swirling rumours linking him to Juventus, stating that while his future remains undecided, his focus is firmly on the present and the support he enjoys at Galatasaray.
The Nigerian striker, currently on loan from Napoli, has taken the Turkish Super Lig by storm, drawing attention from top European clubs. Osimhen acknowledged the growing interest in his performances but emphasized the importance of living in the moment.
“There are always rumours about me, but I live in the moment. I’m enjoying all this,” he said. The striker was full of praise for Galatasaray’s fans, teammates, and his family, describing their support as “incredible.”
The 25-year-old added that whatever decision he eventually makes, Galatasaray will always have a special place in his heart. His remarks come amid reports of concrete interest from Real Madrid, Manchester United, and Juventus, all keen to secure his services ahead of the summer transfer window.

Osimhen’s statistics back the hype. He scored his 17th goal of 2025 in Galatasaray’s recent clash against Samsunspor, moving him into joint-third among Europe’s top scorers for the year. He now sits level with Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski and Sporting’s Viktor Gyökeres, ahead of Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane.
Only PSG’s Ousmane Dembélé (24 goals) and Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappé (19 goals) have found the net more times than Osimhen this calendar year, underlining the Nigerian’s prolific form. His consistent performances have been crucial in keeping Galatasaray at the top of the Turkish Super Lig standings.
The latest strike came in a high-pressure match at the Samsun 19 Mayis Stadium, where Galatasaray were looking to rebound from their derby loss to Besiktas. With his confidence and scoring boots intact, Osimhen’s next move could define the summer transfer market but for now, he remains grounded and focused on finishing strong with his current club.
