Transfer: Victor Osimhen Finally Reveals His Worth On The Transfer Market

Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen has revealed his worth on the transfer market.
According to him, he is worth over  €100 million.
Osimhen, speaking with TuttoSport, insisted he is one of the best footballers in the world currently.
The 25-year-old was key to Napoli’s Scudetto triumph two seasons ago, scoring 26 goals in Serie A.

However, last season, it was clear that Osimhen was going to part ways with Napoli. He was linked to PSG, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Al Ahli, but the deal failed to materialize.
Eventually, he signed for Turkish giants Galatasaray on a season-long deal, after he was frozen out of Napoli’s squad for the season.
In his four games at the club, Osimhen has registered two goals and four assists.
And in a recent interview, Osimhen said: “I am worth more than 100 million euros. There are few players like me in the world who have achieved the same results and success as me.

“I am aware of the contribution I can give to a team. Do people think differently? Some say 15 million euros, others say 100-120-150. Everyone has different opinions.”
