At Galatasaray, the Victor Osimhen collection has already surpassed all expectations. Just a few weeks after the launch, the collection is posting staggering numbers.
Initially, the goal was to sell 100,000 units, but already 30,000 “Solo il Gala” boxes have been snapped up. According to Turkish media, including Fanatic, this campaign has generated a revenue of 300 million Turkish lira for Galatasaray. The 26-year-old Nigerian striker took part in the promotion alongside his daughter, delivering a motivational message ahead of his return to the pitch after injury.
The Osimhen collection confirms the player’s immense popularity among supporters and the commercial impact he brings to the Istanbul club.
Galatasaray’s new transfer, the yellow-red club, has generated a revenue of 300 million TL from the special box offered for the Nigerian striker so far.
The Victor Osimhen collection, launched this month in GS Store shops, has received intense interest from fans. The box named “Solo il Gala” has surpassed the sales barrier of 30,000. It I stated that the initial sales target of 100,000 set by the management can be reached in a short time.
The 26-year-old Osimhen appeared in the promotional video of the campaign with his daughter. The advertisement film, which was well-received by fans, also created a significant impact on social media.

It has been learned that Osimhen did not want this advertisement to be shared during his injury period. It was expressed that the Nigerian star is fully focused on returning to the fields and is dedicated to this process.
Osimhen arrived at Galatasaray during the summer transfer window, after he failed to get a move to a big club and was alienated from Napoli.
Since his move, the 25-year-old striker has become the poster boy for Galatasaray. Osimhen has seamlessly adjusted to life in Turkey as he has contributed four goals and four assists in seven appearances. The Super Eagles star has also become a fan favorite.
However, the romance could end soon, as Osimhen only signed a contract that will keep him in Istanbul until the end of the season. But Galatasaray are already making moves to keep him for a while longer.
According to Turkish news outlet Fanatik, Galatasaray are planning to offer Napoli €50 million for Osimhen’s services.
If Galatasaray can pull the deal off, it would be the greatest transfer in Turkish Super Lig history. But realistically, Napoli would not accept €50 million for a player they acquired for over €70 million.
Also, it could have huge financial implications for the Turkish champions as they would have to offload some of their star players to avoid breaking the financial fair-play rules.
