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.
