Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has opened up about his move from Napoli to Galatasaray this summer.

The 25-year-old joined the Turkish champions on a season-long loan after falling out with Napoli following his botched move to either Chelsea or Al Ahli on transfer deadline day.

The reigning African Footballer of the Year disclosed that he was ready to stay at Napoli after his failed transfer. However, he added that he didn't want the club to decide his future.

“I had plans to stay there and wait for three or four months and leave in January, but I think for me it was fair also to stay there because I wouldn’t let anyone decide for me,” Osimhen told Turkish media at the Galatasaray training centre.

“It was important for me to stay there since I didn’t get the deserved move that I really preferred.”

Osimhen has been impressive since joining Galatasaray this summer. The Super Eagles striker has netted two goals and provided four assists in his first four games for the club.
