Victor Osimhen Manchester United Galatasaray transfer speculation top striker ranking

Nigeria international Victor Osimhen, the 27‑year‑old striker who joined Galatasaray in July 2025, is being closely linked with a transfer to Premier League side Manchester United. United are reportedly prepared to meet a price of around €75 million for the forward, who is under contract with the Turkish club until June 2029, and the likelihood of a deal is estimated at 65 %. Osimhen finished the 2024‑25 Süper Lig season as top scorer with 31 goals, helping Galatasaray secure back‑to‑back league titles and a Turkish Cup.

Former teammate Przemysław Frankowski said Osimhen belongs in the global elite, placing him alongside Erling Haaland and Harry Kane. A Planet Football ranking lists the Nigerian striker as the fifth‑best centre‑forward in the world, noting his prolific record at Napoli and his recent performances for Galatasaray. The praise underscores why several major European clubs, including Manchester United, are monitoring his situation closely.
