He said it was one of Osimhen’s conditions that led to the club’s signing of Leroy Sane from Bayern Munich.

He said the signing of Sanè was part of their strategy to lure Nigerian highly sought after striker to join them.

Ali Naci Küçük told Futbol Arena Youtube channel viahabersarikirmizi that Osimhen said he would only stay at the Super Lig if they are able bring in new top stars and build a solid team.

Germany international, Sané is all set to move to the Super Lig champions after his contract at Bundesliga champions expires on June 30.

Sane could decide to play for Bayern Munich at the FIFA Club World Cup which started yesterday in the United States of America.

The former Manchester City star already agreed a 3-year deal with the Turkish giants and with a net salary of €9m per season and a loyalty bonus of €3m.

Galatasaray want Osimhen to remain at the club having had a loan spell in which he netted 37 goals and registered eight assists in 41 appearances for the club.

Osimhen, however, is in no hurry to decide his future.

“When Icardi signed for Galatasaray, he said, ‘If we are going to build a strong team, I will stay.’ Osimhen used the same sentence.”

Küçük urged the fans and media to respect the striker’s patience and decision-making process.

“Now let’s talk about the transfer issue. Galatasaray is in a hurry, but Osimhen is not.

“The player needs to be treated with understanding. Galatasaray has done the math well at the moment.”

The Turkish giants are said to have offered the Nigerian €14 million plus bonuses in wages, which the former African Footballer of the Year is currently considering.
