Victor Osimhen has spoken out regarding ongoing transfer rumors that have linked him to Arsenal and other European clubs. The Nigerian striker, who currently plays for Galatasaray, emphasized his commitment to the team during a post-match interview following a 2-2 draw against Corum FK.
Osimhen, who scored both goals for Galatasaray in the match, expressed that he is not distracted by the speculation surrounding his future. "Rumors always circulate during transfer seasons. I'll focus on my job. I'm focused on my work. We'll see and think about the future then," he stated during his interview with GS TV.
The interest in Osimhen has been a recurring theme since he joined Galatasaray on a permanent basis last summer. Despite his recent success with the Turkish club, reports have surfaced indicating that Arsenal has made inquiries to Galatasaray regarding the terms of a potential transfer. Other European clubs are also reportedly keeping a close eye on his situation as the summer transfer window progresses.
Osimhen's performance against Corum FK showcased his importance to Galatasaray's attacking lineup, particularly as he netted a late equalizer that salvaged a point for the team. His impressive form is likely to complicate any potential negotiations for his departure, as Galatasaray would be hesitant to let go of a player of his caliber without a substantial fee.
As the transfer window continues, Osimhen's focus remains on his contributions to Galatasaray, where he is determined to help the team achieve its goals this season.
