The news has caused a big buzz not just in Istanbul, but around the whole football community: Galatasaray have officially signed Nigerian star player Victor Osimhen from Napoli for a huge fee of £64. 8 million (€75 million). This isn't just a record-breaking transfer for Turkish football; it's a monumental statement of intent, a declaration that the Turkish champions are ready to ascend to the next level, both domestically and on the grand European stage. Osimhen is staying at Galatasaray permanently after a very successful loan period during the 2024-25 season. He helped the team win the Super Lig and the Turkish Cup, scoring an amazing 37 goals in 41 games across all competitions, including 26 goals in the league, marks the culmination of a protracted transfer saga. It's a move that underscores Galatasaray's ambition, their financial muscle, and their ability to convince one of the world's most coveted strikers to commit his prime years to the Süper Lig. The Crown...
Barcelona's 4-2 loss against Osasuna cruelly terminated their undefeated start to the La Liga season.
At El Sadar, those adjustments proved to be Barcelona's undoing as Ante Budimir and Bryan Zaragoza gave the home team a 2-0 lead at the half.
After the break, Pau Victor's first-ever La Liga goal gave Barcelona a slight advantage, but Budimir's penalty kick restored Osasuna's two-goal advantage.
Osasuna was eliminated from sight when Abel Bretones scored his first Premier League goal, but Lamine Yamal had time to fire a late consolation goal from the bench.
Barcelona's winning streak will come to an end soon, as they get ready to play Young Boys in the UEFA Champions League on October 1.
