Thousands of Galatasaray fans gathered at Istanbul Airport in the early hours of Monday to welcome Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen with immense enthusiasm.
Despite his 3:30 a.m. arrival, Osimhen was greeted by cheering fans, chanting his name and creating an unforgettable atmosphere.
This warm reception marks the start of Osimhen’s season-long loan move from Napoli to Galatasaray, a deal finalized after the European transfer window closed.
Galatasaray will cover his €10 million salary, reportedly paying €8.8 million, with a break clause in January, allowing top clubs to explore options for the striker.
Fans had been eagerly awaiting Osimhen’s arrival, staying overnight at the airport to see the Super Eagles star. He is set to undergo medical tests on Tuesday morning before officially joining Galatasaray’s Europa League squad.
