Osimhen Faces Fresh Transfer Pressure Amid Galatasaray Tensions

The Super Eagles forward is reportedly unhappy after revealing that he has not been paid his salary for the past three months. The situation appears to have strained his relationship with the club.

Signs of the growing tension were evident during Galatasaray's 3-3 pre-season draw against Rennes on Sunday, when Osimhen reportedly declined the captain's armband after it was offered to him.

The uncertainty has reignited interest from several European clubs. Tottenham Hotspur are said to have submitted a bid worth around €60 million, but Galatasaray rejected the offer.

Chelsea have also reportedly revived their pursuit of the prolific striker, while Spanish giants Atletico Madrid are believed to have made inquiries about his salary package. Reports further claim that Osimhen's representative has travelled to Madrid to discuss a potential transfer.

With the transfer window still open, Osimhen's situation is expected to remain one of the biggest stories in the European transfer market.
