Galatasaray surge to front of queue for Man United target Victor Osimhen, sensational deal prepared

The future of one of Manchester United’s priority targets has taken a worrying twist, with reports in Turkey claiming that Victor Osimhen is set to stay at loan club Galatasaray.

The Nigerian hitman is one of the best strikers in Europe, and after things went sour at Napoli last year he was shipped out to Galatasaray on loan.

He has been a revelation in the Turkish top flight, scoring 33 goals and providing eight assists in just 37 matches to record the best figures of his already goal-laden career to date.

And if he scores just two more goals he will become the highest-scoring foreign player in a single season in Galatasaray history, taking over from Brazilian forward Mario Jardel.
