There's something wrong with Nigerian players and big clubs.
Since the days of Mikel Obi how many Super Eagles have played and be productive for any big clubs. I'm talking big clubs like Man U, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Madrid , Barca... Even clubs below like Spurs, ATM, Aston Villa..
Look at African players like Hakiimi, Salah, Mbuemo, etc... Not forgetting past greats like Mane, Yaya, Drogba, etc..
Why are Super Eagles players not desirable?
I bet you if Osimhen was Cameroonian or Ivorian he would have been in a major club currently

Nobody is talking of Sesko reducing his wages to make Man United move come through

Gyokerees did same for arsenal.

So those pushing the lame narratives that asking a player reduce his salary demands abit means he is under valued can now rest their head on a pillow

Osimhen was asked to collect just a quarter of what he earns at Napoli.

And no Gyokores is not collecting anything less than what he was earning at Lisbon.

So, your agenda is DOA.

Raf D. reportedly being monitored by Udinese according to SCN. Sadika staying with Valencia on loan. Arsenal taking a look at Luku.
Big Paul back with Trabzonspor in Turkey, let's see who gets crowned goal king of Turkey, Osimhen, Onuachu or Tammy?

As a Nigerian, for you to be given the same treatment like other other top professionals,you have to be twice as good as others.
Osimhen have the talent to be in one of the top five clubs in the world and this is not hype.

Look at Okocha now,any respectable legend organized games in the world,his name is always there,but when he was active,they were unwilling to give him a try even after everything he did with poor Bolton in premier league,one of the top clubs in PL should have at least tried him out even for one season.
Nevertheless, Nigeria's time will come to take her rightful place among nations.

yes. Playing in the premier league is far better than the turkish league. I can accept his move to turkey, its his decision i cant decide for him. What we should'nt do is behave as if clamouring for his move to epl is out of place. Its unfortunate the move couldn’t work due to to the unwillingness of these clubs to meet his demands but a 26 years old player who won APOTY 2 years ago has no business in the turkish league at this stage in his career.

Was thinking the same. They are that desperate.

But no way that's a not a massive downgrade for Osimehn

Victor Boniface is casestudy of why excessive social media use, especially on a very visible platform like X is bad for footballers.

When off form he gets absolutely no sympathy from football Twitter

Thank you brother.
The typical mindset of the average Nigerian is evident on this platform. A life style where they equate been ambitious with having lot of money at all cost. They don't even care chase career dreams and robbing shoulders with the best and in the best field

Personally I rate La Liga higher than premier league,but truth be told,Osimhen playing in any of the top 10 clubs in premier league is better than playing for Galatasaray, not that all the top 10 clubs in PL are necessarily better than Galatasaray as a team per say,but a top class performance in any of those teams like Isak did would put him up for bigger clubs, and they can confidently trigger any clause he might have with the club in PL unlike his performance in Turkey could do for him.

But anything is possible, I still believe Osimhen is going to spend only two seasons in Turkey.

No change mouth abegi. Rest.

Osimhen didn't ask for anything. They're supposed to pay him exactly what he's worked for and is currently earning, but since you're the smartest man alive and have been living under the ocean, I don't expect you to know this. Agendist.
