Mikel Obi Visits Victor Osimhen in Turkey Amid Transfer Rumours
Former Chelsea star Mikel Obi has arrived in Istanbul, Turkey, to meet with Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen at Galatasaray. The two are set to record a podcast episode together, with talk of a possible Premier League move for Osimhen circulating.
Osimhen’s future has been uncertain, as he has expressed a desire to leave Galatasaray despite being on loan at the club. Recently, he turned down a transfer to Manchester United, even though his contract allows him to leave.
Mikel Obi has long been a supporter of Osimhen and has openly expressed his wish for the striker to join Chelsea. The Blues have struggled with their current forward, Nicolas Jackson, whose performance has not been strong. Obi has been vocal about this and has made it clear he believes Osimhen could be the solution.
Osimhen came close to joining Chelsea last summer, but talks collapsed at the last minute. Now, as Obi meets with him at the Florya Metin Oktay training facility, the two are expected to discuss the events of the last transfer window in their upcoming podcast episode. This meeting has already sparked excitement on social media, with many speculating about Osimhen’s future move.
