Osimhen Reportedly Fumes Over Exit Rumors at Galatasaray, Cancels Press Conference in Frustration
Tensions flared at Galatasaray as Nigerian international Victor Osimhen reportedly reacted with fury to media reports suggesting his imminent departure from the Turkish Super League champions.
Popular Galatasaray commentator Ugur Karakullukçu revealed on his YouTube channel (via habersarikirmizi) that Osimhen was visibly upset after seeing a news story claiming he was set to announce his departure.
“He saw the post and went crazy. They could hardly contain it,” Karakullukçu said.
The 26-year-old, who joined Galatasaray on loan from Napoli last year, was so angered by the false speculation that he cancelled a scheduled press conference in protest. According to the journalist, Osimhen remained visibly agitated until after training, where he finally began to calm down.
🗣️ A Player with Passion, Not Drama
Osimhen’s reaction speaks volumes — not of arrogance, but of deep emotional investment. While some might view this as overreaction, it’s worth noting the toll that constant transfer rumors can take on elite athletes.
The Super Eagles star has been instrumental for Galatasaray during his loan spell, and it’s clear he doesn’t want distractions to define his journey or undermine his focus. Fans admire players who wear their hearts on their sleeves — and Osimhen is one of those.
🔄 What Next?
Osimhen’s loan from Napoli is set to expire in June, and while speculation around his future is natural, this emotional outburst might hint that he's not done in Turkey yet — or at least, not ready to be spoken for without clarity.
With top clubs in England, France, and Saudi Arabia circling, the summer promises big decisions for Osimhen — but if one thing is certain, it’s that he wants those decisions to be made on his terms, not through media assumptions.
Let’s hope Galatasaray and Osimhen can find a path forward — whether that’s extending the romance or parting ways amicably. For now, fans just want to see him focused, scoring, and silencing the noise with goals.
