Former Turkish referee, Ahmet Çakar has criticized Galatasaray vice president, Abdullah Kavukcu and agent George Gardi for disgracing the Turkish giants by tabling a huge amount of money to sign Victor Osimhen and still failed to land the Napoli striker at the moment.

Galatasaray are keen to secure Osimhen’s signature on a permanent after the Nigerian spent last season on loan at the club.

But Napoli are yet to respond to the latest offer of 75 million for Osimhen from Galatasaray.

Galatasaray officials have also returned to Istanbul without reaching an agreement with Napoli, a development that Çakar is not pleased with Kavukcu and Gardi.

“I congratulate Abdullah Kavukcu and broker Gardi, who gave 75 million euros for Osimhen and couldn’t get him, for this disgrace they caused Galatasaray,” Çakar said (via habersarikirmizi).

Osimhen wants to leave Napoli this summer and has made his intention clear.

Super Eagles playmaker, Alex Iwobi, has admitted they are waiting to see if the team would still play at the 2026 World Cup.

The Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, is optimistic of a potential lifeline from FIFA, after it submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Iwobi was asked by SuperSport if he would rather lift the AFCON 2025 trophy or qualify for the World Cup?

The 29-year-old, who played at the 2018 of the World Cup, replied: “I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.

“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have like in your career, a memorable moment.

“But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been. They would like to say ‘I want to go to the World Cup,’ so I can’t be selfish and say win the AFCON and for my teammates to not go to the World Cup. So it’s a tough one. I don’t know. I don’t know.”
