Victor Osimhen has addressed the growing rumours about a possible move to Fenerbahçe, making it clear he won’t be playing for the Turkish side—or any other club in Istanbul. Despite strong links suggesting the Nigerian forward could join Jose Mourinho’s new team, the former Lille star revealed that switching between rival clubs in the same city would be too much for him to handle mentally and emotionally.

Osimhen, who spent last season on loan at Galatasaray, said the intense passion and pressure from fans in Turkey is even higher than what he experienced in Italy while playing for Napoli. And that, he admits, is not something he wants to go through again. He explained that while he understands the competitive nature of football, moving from one big Istanbul club to another would leave him drained.

His words have now ended any talk of a potential move to Fenerbahçe. Despite his stellar form at Galatasaray—scoring 37 goals and providing 8 assists in 41 appearances—he’s not rushing into his next move. Top European clubs including Manchester United, Chelsea, and Juventus are also keeping a close eye on him, but Osimhen is taking his time to make the right decision.
