Enthusiastic supporters mob Nigerian striker Osimhen on his trip to Lagos

Victor Osimhen, the Nigerian striker, sparked chaos in Ojota, Lagos, as news of his visit spread like wildfire online, prompting a sea of fans to swarm his car and bring the streets to a standstill, according to PUNCH Sports Extra.

The sheer scale of the crowd was evident in videos circulating on social media, which showed hundreds of enthusiastic supporters surrounding Osimhen's vehicle, chanting his name, and capturing the moment on their devices, causing the car to come to a complete halt.

In a bid to restore order, Osimhen emerged from his Lamborghini and mingled with the crowd, attempting to placate the throngs of fans who had gathered to catch a glimpse of the football star.

The electrifying scenes in Ojota served as a testament to the profound affection Nigerians have for their most revered footballer, amidst ongoing speculation about his future at the club.

Osimhen, at just 27 years old, remains the subject of intense transfer speculation, with several European clubs vying for his signature, despite Galatasaray's steadfast insistence that they have no intention of parting with him during the summer transfer window.

As the Turkish champions, who successfully defended their Super Lig title last season with Osimhen's impressive contribution of 22 goals and eight assists, have set a minimum asking price of €150m for the player, after rejecting a €120m offer from an unnamed European club.

Galatasaray president Dursun Ozbek has reaffirmed, through Turkish football pundit Nevzat Dindar, that the club will only consider selling Osimhen if their valuation is met in full and the player himself expresses a desire to leave, a condition that has yet to be fulfilled.
