Turkish journalist Ali Naci Küçük revealed that prolific Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen rejected an offer from super agent Jorge Mendes.
Recall that Mendes formerly represented Portugal star Cristiano Ronaldo.
According to Küçük, speaking to 343 Digital, “Mendes’ Chief Advisor, Umberto Saldavor, travelled to Istanbul three weeks ago and met with Victor Osimhen.
“During the offer, he used the phrase ‘Barcelona, Real Madrid, whichever you want, I can take you there.
“Osimhen rejected this offer: ‘I only work with my lawyer, I’m happy at Galatasaray.’”
The Nigerian, who plays for Galatasaray S.K. after the Turkish club signed him permanently for €75 million in July 2025, has also rejected multiple high-profile offers—including bids of up to €120M–€130M from European clubs and Saudi side Al-Hilal.
