Atletico Madrid Eye Victor Osimhen as Backup if Álvarez Departs

Atletico Madrid Eye Victor Osimhen as Backup if Álvarez Departs

Atletico Madrid have reached out to Galatasaray about signing Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen. The move is a contingency plan in case Julián Álvarez leaves for Barcelona. Galatasaray currently insist Osimhen is not for sale and would only consider bids starting at €140 million. If the Argentine forward does depart, Osimhen could link up with Ademola Lookman to form a formidable attacking duo in Madrid. Reports indicate both Atletico and Barcelona view Osimhen as their top alternative this summer.

Do you think Atletico Madrid's plan to sign Osimhen hinges more on Álvarez's departure or on boosting their attacking depth?

True oh, makes sense they'd tap Osimhen if Álvarez moves on. Depth na serious play!

Galatasaray's insistence on a €140 million fee underscores how highly they value Osimhen as a long-term asset.

Relying on Osimhen as a backup feels counterproductive; he deserves a starting role rather than waiting on Álvarez's potential exit.

Atletico might find better value promoting from their academy or signing a less costly striker instead of chasing a high price tag.
