Report: Galatasaray owe Osimhen salaries
Turkish newspaper Hurriyet has reported that Victor Osimhen has yet to receive his salaries for January and February.
This report comes at the time when the Super Eagles striker stayed away from Saturday’s Super Lig match at Konyaspor, which Galatasaray lost 2-0.
The Turkish champions released a statement that Osimhen is recovering from a knee injury.
Osimhen is on a bumper annual salary of between 18 and 21 million euros.
At the height of his transfer saga at Italian club Napoli, he insisted he will not take a pay cut to move.
Turkish clubs are notorious for owing players several months’ pay and other contract breaches.

Like it was last year, the Super Eagles again did not get paid for their efforts in a commendable comeback-draw with Russia.
Russia splashed out $1.2 million in June 2025 to get Nigeria play against them in a first-ever meeting at full international level.
The match ended in a 1-1 draw with striker Tolu Arokodare scoring the equaliser for the Super Eagles.
This week, the Eagles, parading a makeshift team made up of as many as nine debutants, fought back to draw 3-3 with home team Russia.
It was understood that the NFF received $600,000 to honour this friendly.
The team did not receive even an appearance fee.
“Again no kobo was paid the team and there were no promises of anything going forward.” a source informed SCORENigeria
