Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has responded to growing speculation linking him with a move to Serie A giants Juventus following his stellar performances during his loan spell at Galatasaray.
The Napoli forward has been in sensational form for the Turkish club, earning admiration from top European teams, including Real Madrid, Manchester United, and Juventus, all of whom are reportedly monitoring his progress ahead of the upcoming transfer window.
In an exclusive interview with Tuttomercatoweb on Friday, Osimhen addressed the rumours, emphasizing that while transfer speculation is inevitable, he remains focused on the present.

“There are always rumours about me, but I live in the moment. Now I’m enjoying all this. The fans have greatly supported me. Not only I, but also my teammates and my family. The best decision for everyone will be made. But Galatasaray will always remain in my heart,” Osimhen said.
In addition to addressing the transfer rumours, Osimhen also celebrated his impressive scoring form. On Friday, the Nigerian international scored his 17th goal of 2025, further solidifying his position among Europe’s top scorers this calendar year.
His goal against Samsunspor brought him level with Robert Lewandowski of Barcelona and Viktor Gyokeres of Sporting Lisbon in joint-third place among Europe’s leading marksmen. The goal also keeps Osimhen ahead of Harry Kane of Bayern Munich (14 goals) and Serhou Guirassy of Borussia Dortmund (13 goals).

Only Ousmane Dembele of PSG (24 goals) and Kylian Mbappe of Real Madrid (19 goals) have scored more goals than Osimhen in 2025.
Osimhen’s goal helped Galatasaray maintain their three-point lead at the top of the Turkish Super Lig, with the team looking to bounce back after a recent derby defeat.
As the transfer window approaches, Osimhen’s future continues to be a subject of intense speculation, but for now, the Nigerian striker is enjoying his time at Galatasaray, where he has earned a special place in the hearts of the club’s fans.
