Galatasaray president Dursun Özbek has dismissed rumours about a release clause in Victor Osimhen’s contract. The Nigerian striker completed a permanent move to the Turkish champions this summer. This followed his impressive loan spell last season.
Özbek Addresses Transfer Speculation
At a sponsorship event, Özbek clarified contract details. “Osimhen’s deal includes no exit clause,” he stated firmly. The president highlighted Osimhen’s importance to Galatasaray’s future plans. He described the striker as an exceptional talent. Özbek expects long-term contributions from the Nigerian forward.
Galatasaray activated a €75 million clause at Napoli for Osimhen. Since returning to Istanbul, he has made an immediate impact. Osimhen features prominently in Galatasaray’s strong Super Lig start.
Chukwueze’s Injury Update
Meanwhile, Fulham manager Marco Silva confirmed Samuel Chukwueze’s absence. The winger will miss Saturday’s Premier League game against Newcastle United. He continues recovering from a calf injury sustained on international duty.
Silva listed unavailable players on Fulham’s website. “Chukwueze remains out alongside others,” he stated. The Nigerian has made two league appearances this season. Medical staff expect his return to training before month’s end.
