Galatasaray place €130m valuation on Osimhen amid Barcelona interest



Turkish champions Galatasaray have placed a massive €130 million valuation on Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen, amid growing interest from Barcelona and other top European clubs.

BusinessDay recently reported that Barcelona are considering Osimhen as a long-term replacement for Robert Lewandowski, who is expected to leave the Catalan giants at the end of the season.

However, Galatasaray have made it clear that their prized forward will only be sold for a record-breaking fee.

Sources told Turkish-Football that the club will not entertain any offers below €130 million, with management determined to keep hold of the 26-year-old Nigerian, except for any club willing to pay his valuation fee.

Osimhen joined Galatasaray permanently from Napoli during the 2025 summer transfer window for around €75 million and is under contract until 2029, making any move financially complicated.

Since his arrival, the Nigerian international has been in fine form, scoring six goals in nine appearances across all competitions.

Galatasaray remain adamant that Osimhen, one of the most prolific forwards in world football, will not leave Istanbul unless their valuation is fully met.
