Former Galatasaray coach Hamza Hamzaoğlu stated that the Turkish Super Lig champions are unable to afford a permanent transfer for Victor Osimhen.
Osimhen joined the Yellow and Reds on loan from Napoli in September.
Reports suggest that Okan Buruk’s side are eager to secure the Nigeria international on a permanent deal at the end of the season.
Hamzaoğlu, however, believes his former club will be unable to sign the Nigerian due to financial limitations.
“It is difficult for Galatasaray to sign Victor Osimhen. In fact, I can say that they cannot,” he was quoted as saying by Habersarikirmizi.
“I’ve heard that there are other clubs interested in Osimhen. Galatasaray can go so far with the figures, but beyond that, it could cause problems.
“Financial situations need to be taken into account. However, if he stays, he will continue to be an asset.”
