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.
