Reigning Turkish champions, Galatasaray, are trying to lure Argentina forward Paulo Dybala with a new deal in preparation for Victor Osimhen’s potential exit next summer, Soccernet.ng reports.
Galatasaray have won the last two Super Lig titles and are looking to add more to their cabinet. Last summer, the Turkish kings shocked the world by acquiring Osimhen’s services after the Nigerian failed to secure a transfer to a top club.
Since joining, Osimhen has registered ten goals and five assists for Galatasaray. His presence for the Lions has given them a big boost this season.
However, Osimhen is not expected to stay at Galatasaray beyond next summer, especially if Napoli accepts an offer for him. Hence, Galatasaray have started exploring other options.
According to Nicolo Schira, Galatasaray are looking at signing Dybala, who will be a free agent by the end of the season.
#Galatasaray have offered a rich contract until 2027 to Paulo #Dybala to try to sign the argentinian. His contract with #ASRoma expires in June 2025 and it won’t be extended. There is also an automatic option until 2026 upon reaching certain conditions (not triggered as of now)

The Turkish giants have gone all in, as they have tabled a mouthwatering deal to Dybala. However, it is unknown whether Dybala will take up the offer.
The former Juventus star could be tempted to join Galatasaray due to the prospect of playing with his countryman Mauro Icardi, who has a good reputation among Galatasaray fans.
Still, if a bumper contract arrives from the Saudi Pro League, Dybala, who is already 31, may decide to chase the money.
