Sponsored — In Article

Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen caused a huge scene in Ojota, Lagos. Videos of his visit spread quickly online. Fans gathered around his car, blocking it and refusing to let him go, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.

Footage on social media showed many excited fans rushing to see him. They were shouting his name, recording videos, and crowding against his car until it could not move.

The crowd became so large that Osimhen had to step out of his Lamborghini to calm them down. He walked among the fans, trying to manage the wild reception.

What happened in Ojota showed how much Nigerians love their star footballer. This comes amid ongoing rumors about his future with his club.

Osimhen, 27, is still a target for many European clubs. This is despite Galatasaray’s strong statement that they will not sell him this summer.

The Turkish champions defended their Super Lig title last season. Osimhen scored 22 goals and made eight assists in all competitions. They have set a minimum asking price of €150 million after turning down a €120 million offer from an unnamed European club.

Galatasaray president Dursun Ozbek confirmed through Turkish football expert Nevzat Dindar that the club will not sell unless they get their price. They also stated that Osimhen must want to leave, which does not seem to be the case at the moment.
