Galatasaray has placed an order for 50,000 jerseys in anticipation of Victor Osimhen’s official unveiling, as preparations intensify for what is expected to be one of the most high-profile signings in Turkish football history.
The Turkish Super Lig champions are orchestrating a major event around the arrival of the Nigerian international, with club marketing and media departments working in tandem to transform the ceremony into a commercial spectacle.
According to Fanatik, Galatasaray aims to capitalise on the occasion by turning Osimhen’s presentation into a significant revenue generator.
Osimhen’s arrival is being meticulously coordinated, with his travel itinerary, medical checks, and welcome all scheduled for Friday.
Arda Özkurt reports that the club’s kit supplier, Puma, has been tasked with producing 50,000 shirts specifically for the event, underlining the scale of the celebration and the commercial expectations surrounding the striker’s signing.
Citing information from Italian transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, it is understood that the formal contracts have already been sent to Osimhen for review.
While final paperwork and remaining logistical details are still being finalised, all indications point to a permanent transfer agreement between Galatasaray and Napoli.
The deal, reportedly valued at €75 million, would see Osimhen sign a long-term contract running until at least 2028.
His move marks a significant shift in Galatasaray’s transfer ambitions, reflecting the club’s intent to make a powerful statement both on and off the pitch.
Notably, Osimhen is not expected to travel to Austria for Galatasaray’s pre-season training camp, as the club focuses on completing the transfer formalities in Istanbul.
Once all documents are in place, the striker will officially join the squad, and his grand unveiling is set to attract major media coverage and fanfare.
Osimhen, who has become one of Africa’s most sought-after forwards in recent seasons, is seen as a transformative signing for the Istanbul giants.
With the jersey orders already in motion, Galatasaray is banking on massive shirt sales and brand exposure to accompany the striker’s highly anticipated arrival.
