Victor Osimhen to Land in Istanbul on Tuesday for Galatasaray Welcome
Victor Osimhen is set to touch down in Istanbul on Tuesday to reunite with Galatasaray fans, marking a major moment for both the club and its supporters. Turkish football pundit Hakan Gündoğar revealed that the Nigerian forward will be arriving on Tuesday and is expected to be welcomed in grand fashion by the Galatasaray faithful, with fans planning one of the most memorable receptions in the club’s history.
Galatasaray and Napoli have reportedly finalized all financial details, including bank guarantees and a two-part payment plan for the striker’s permanent move. The Turkish champions will cover Osimhen’s €75 million release clause in two instalments, €40 million upfront and €35 million within the next year.
Osimhen had spent last season on loan at Galatasaray and made the decision to remain in Turkey, turning down massive offers from Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal in the process. His return is seen as a major boost for Galatasaray ahead of the new campaign.
Former footballer Thierry Henry has shared his thoughts on Arsenal’s match following their loss to Atlético Madrid on October 13.
Speaking during a brief interview on CBS Sports, Henry criticised the practice of players or coaches expressing certain opinions through the media instead of addressing issues directly within the dressing room.
“I’m not a coach anymore, but I always say, whoever speaks like that, out. Keep that in the dressing room, it’s as simple as that,” Henry said on CBS Sports.
“That is the only way it can work. You have to say those things to a person’s face… going through the press, I am not really a fan of that.”
Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique has shared his thoughts on the 2026 Ballon d’Or award, revealing that he hopes the winner will come from his team.
The manager spoke about how hard his players have worked and expressed his belief that they deserve the recognition.
“What I hope is that we win this trophy. We have players who deserve it.”
“Last year, we were the best team. We showed that it wasn’t just Ousmane Dembélé who deserved it.”
French football pundit Walid Acherchour has named Lamine Yamal as his pick to win the 2026 Ballon d’Or, sparking reactions among football fans.
Acherchour’s choice came as a surprise to some fans, who expected him to support fellow Frenchman Kylian Mbappé instead.
Speaking about his prediction, Acherchour expressed confidence in Yamal’s chances of winning the prestigious individual award.
“For me, Lamine Yamal, he is going to get it [2026 Ballon d’Or]. For me, there’s no doubt anymore,” Acherchour said, as quoted by Actu Foot. That start to the season shows that in fact, he was injured during the World Cup. He was the best player in La Liga, and he won the World Cup.
“Even if, for me, in fact, he doesn’t have the Ballon d’Or unanimously because his World Cup was average, even being average, he won it with Spain. He won La Liga with Barça.”
