A shocking transfer claim has emerged in the Spanish press regarding Galatasaray’s star striker Victor Osimhen. The Nigerian forward was reportedly offered to Atletico Madrid, with claims he is willing to accept a significant pay cut. League standing (final 2025 table -- new season not yet under way): 1st in Süper Lig, 77 pts, 24W-5D-5L from 34 games.
Is Osimhen heading to Atletico Madrid?
It was revealed that Osimhen was proposed to Atletico Madrid through intermediaries. The Nigerian is said to admire Diego Simeone and is keen on playing in La Liga. His desire to live in Madrid may lead him to accept a wage reduction.
What’s the transfer fee?
The potential transfer fee for Osimhen could reach €75 million. Atletico Madrid reportedly consider this figure unrealistic, expecting Galatasaray to demand a higher sum. Goals this season: 77 scored, 30 conceded (+47 goal difference).
Why did Atletico Madrid reject the offer?
The Spanish club currently lacks the financial liquidity to complete the deal. However, if Julian Alvarez or Alexander Sörloth are sold, the transfer could gain momentum. Lead at the top: 3 points clear of Fenerbahçe.
