See what happens to Osimhen’s Social Media Account After Galatasaray Move

Victor Osimhen has seen a big jump in his social media followers just a day after joining Galatasaray on loan. The Nigerian forward, who is the current African Footballer of the Year, moved from Napoli to the Turkish team for the 2024/25 season.

The transfer has not only increased Osimhen’s profile in European football but also boosted his social media presence. According to sportsration.com, he gained over 100,000 new Instagram followers, rising from 4.4 million to 4.5 million within 24 hours of the announcement. This shows his popularity and the excitement about his move to Turkey.

Osimhen’s switch to Galatasaray comes after a failed attempt to join Chelsea and a tempting offer from Saudi Arabian club Al Ahli, which proposed a €30 million annual salary. Osimhen chose to stay in Europe, leading to his loan move to Galatasaray.

FIRSTCLASSGISTS reports that this increase in followers further highlights Osimhen’s status as a major football star, with many fans eagerly following his time at Galatasaray.
