WATCH THE VIDEO HERE Victor Osimhen’s sensational form for Galatasaray has reignited Saudi Arabian interest, with two Pro League clubs reportedly preparing bids to trigger his €75m release clause, Soccernet.ng reports. The Nigerian striker, on loan from Napoli, has been in devastating form since his surprise move to Turkey in September 2024. Osimhen has scored 28 goals and provided five assists in just 32 appearances across all competitions, becoming a fan favourite at Galatasaray and drawing the attention of Europe’s top clubs – and now Saudi Arabia’s wealthiest. Italian transfer expert Nicolo Schira reports that two unnamed Saudi Pro League clubs are in contact with Osimhen’s representatives, laying the groundwork for a summer move. The 25-year-old had previously been close to joining Al Ahli during the 2024 summer window, only for talks to collapse at the final stage. In the aftermath, Osimhen extended his Napoli contract until 2027, with a €75 million release clause inserted before completing his season-long loan to Galatasaray. That decision has since proven shrewd. The Super Eagles star has scored 20 goals in 20 Super Lig starts and this week fired a clinical brace in a 2-1 Turkish Cup quarter-final victory over Fenerbahce to take Galatasaray into the semi-finals. Victor Osimhen with an absolute rocket for Galatasaray! What a goal! #Osimhen #Galatasaray — Nigeria Football Weekly (@NFWPod) April 2, 2025 READ MORE Speaking after the match, Osimhen dropped a subtle hint about his future. “I want to keep playing here,” he said – a comment that delighted Galatasaray fans but is unlikely to deter suitors. Osimhen’s electric displays haven’t gone unnoticed in Europe either. Premier League sides Manchester United, Chelsea, and Arsenal, along with Juventus, have all been linked with a summer move. However, the financial muscle of the Saudi clubs remains a serious factor, with reports claiming he could be offered a four-year deal worth €30 million per season. Whether Osimhen stays in Turkey, returns to Napoli, heads to England, or takes the lucrative Saudi route, his future is one of the major transfer sagas to watch this summer. For now, the Nigerian striker continues to deliver on the pitch – but off it, negotiations are heating up fast.
