The Turkish club are reportedly unwilling to sanction any move for the Nigerian international unless their asking price is met in full.

Galatasaray currently hold a strong negotiating position, with Victor Osimhen tied to a long-term contract running until the summer of 2029.

The PSG Osimhen transfer pursuit is believed to be driven by tactical considerations under manager Luis Enrique, who is seeking a more physical and direct attacking presence.

Uncertainty surrounding the long-term future of Portuguese forward Gonçalo Ramos has further increased the club’s interest in signing a traditional centre-forward.

Spanish publication Diario AS reported that Paris Saint-Germain view Victor Osimhen as an ideal solution, although several other major European clubs are also monitoring the striker’s situation.

According to the report, Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, Arsenal, Liverpool and Juventus remain interested in the Super Eagles forward.

FIFA-licensed agent Mithat Halis also argued that Victor Osimhen would be an ideal fit for Real Madrid because of the Spanish club’s need for a recognised centre-forward since the departure of Karim Benzema.

“Osimhen is a complete striker. He does not fit the classic number nine role, nor is he only a penalty-box striker,” Halis said.

“He is an all-round player; he can play with his back to goal, deal with tight defences and also operate as a second striker.”

The agent further claimed that signing Victor Osimhen would allow Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius Júnior to operate more effectively in their preferred wide attacking positions.

Victor Osimhen has enjoyed sensational form since arriving in Istanbul, recording 57 goals and 16 assists in 73 appearances for Galatasaray.

His explosive pace, aerial dominance and relentless pressing have established him as one of Europe’s most dangerous forwards and a prime target in the summer transfer market.

Despite mounting transfer speculation, the Nigerian striker has repeatedly spoken positively about life in Turkey and described Galatasaray as home.

Victor Osimhen also reserved special praise for the club’s supporters, describing them as the best fans he has experienced during his career.

“Everything here is on another level. Galatasaray fans show you their affection both at away matches and in your private life,” he said.
