Osimhen retains €75m value, stays among top 55 players despite World Cup miss
Victor Osimhen has kept his market value at €75 million after another strong season with Galatasaray, according to the latest Transfermarkt update released on July 24, 2026. The Nigerian striker scored 59 goals and provided 16 assists in 74 appearances across all competitions, helping the Turkish club secure domestic titles.
Despite missing Nigeria’s 2026 FIFA World Cup playoff due to injury — DR Congo won the tie on penalties — Osimhen’s valuation remained unchanged, keeping him among the world’s top 55 most valuable players. He is the only player currently plying his trade in the Turkish Süper Lig to hold that rank. The top five are led by Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal (€220m), followed by Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappé, Michael Olise and Jude Bellingham.
For Nigerian fans, this confirms Osimhen’s elite status at club level, offering pride and hope that his market appeal could attract interest from Europe’s biggest clubs, which would further raise the profile of Nigerian talent abroad. It also underscores his importance to the Super Eagles’ future prospects, even after the World Cup setback.
Given his steady €75m price tag, would you expect Osimhen to move to a bigger European club soon, or do you think he should stay at Galatasaray to maintain his form for the national team?
