Victor Osimhen to the Galatasarayvery little time left. With a market move last minute and it’s a real coup de théâtre, the Istanbul club is about to secure one of the best centre-forwards in European football. At the same time, the Naples is about to resolve – at least temporarily – the main criticality that emerged in the summer session just ended. Victor is in fact very close to moving to Galawhich could be considered a done deal in the next few hours.
More and more “Italian”. Led by someone who has excellent relations both in Italy and Turkey, the Osimhen operation paints Galatasaray even more tricolour. Starting from the bench, where Turkish is spoken: Okanagan Burukformer midfielder and now coach of Lionshe also played in Serie A from 2001 to 2004, making 42 appearances in all competitions for Inter.
However, it is among the players that Galatasaray evokes several memories in Italian fans. In goal, for example, there is Fernando Musleraat Lazio from 2007 to 2011 and now a flag bearer for the Giallorossi. More recent are his Italian experiences Kaan AyhanTurkish defender born in Germany, who played for Sassuolo from 2020 to 2023. In midfield, here are two faces familiar to our top league: Sergio Oliveira he was a shooting star, 22 appearances for Roma from January to June 2022. Much more substantial are the reports of Lucas Torreira with our country: arrived in Pescara in 2014, the Uruguayan midfielder then played with Sampdoria and Fiorentina. In attack, double icing on the cake: there are Dries Mertens And Mauro Icardithere should be no need to recall their precedents in Italy. One of the two – all the clues point to the former Inter player – will pair up with Osimhen in a stellar attack.
