Victor Osimhen Hails New Galatasaray Signings As Fenerbahce Move For Ademola Lookman

Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen has praised the club’s January transfer activity after the arrival of Noa Lang and Yáser Asprilla on loan.

The Nigerian forward spoke to Now Spor following Galatasaray’s Champions League defeat to Manchester City on Wednesday, expressing confidence that both new signings will strengthen the squad.

“We have signed two great players, Lang and Asprilla. I think they will both contribute to the team,” Osimhen said.

Lang has joined the Turkish champions on loan from Napoli, while Asprilla has arrived from Girona on a temporary deal. Both players are expected to add depth and creativity to Galatasaray’s attacking options as the club continues its push in domestic and European competitions.

Elsewhere in the Turkish Super Lig, Fenerbahce are intensifying efforts to sign Atalanta winger Ademola Lookman.

According to Football Italia, Fenerbahce officials are currently in Italy to finalise negotiations for the Nigeria international, with the club’s director of sport, Devin Ozek, leading the talks.

The Istanbul giants are reportedly prepared to offer Lookman a salary of €9 million per season.

They have also proposed a loan deal that includes an obligation to buy, with a €5 million loan fee and an additional €35 million payment expected in the summer.

Atalanta are believed to be open to selling Lookman after recently completing the signing of Giacomo Raspadori from Atletico Madrid. The winger had previously attempted to secure a move to Inter last summer but remained in Bergamo after the transfer failed to materialise.
