Arsenal Director Andrea Berta Heads To Turkey For Victor Osimhen Talks

According to Ireporter Online, Arsenal sporting director Andrea Berta has been spotted at a Galatasaray match in Turkey amid growing reports of discussions involving Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen.

Osimhen’s impressive form in the Turkish Super Lig has continued to attract attention from top European clubs, with renewed speculation linking him to a possible Premier League move. Arsenal are believed to be assessing attacking reinforcements despite a relatively strong campaign domestically and in Europe, with reports suggesting Berta travelled to Turkey for talks with Galatasaray president Dursun Özbek.

The development gained traction after Turkish journalist Serkan Korkmaz took to , claiming that Osimhen is a primary target for the North London club and insisting that a private meeting took place between both officials, while dismissing alternative interpretations of the discussions.

The situation has sparked optimism among Arsenal supporters, who have raised concerns over the team’s finishing ability this season. New signing Viktor Gyökeres, brought in from Sporting Lisbon, has yet to consistently hit top form at the Emirates, further intensifying talk of a potential move for a more established goal scorer.

Osimhen further strengthened his reputation with a standout performance in Galatasaray’s 3-0 victory over Fenerbahçe in the Intercontinental Derby, a high-profile fixture reportedly attended by scouts from several European giants including Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, and Juventus. The Nigerian striker opened the scoring just before half-time, reacting quickly inside the box to give his side control of the match.

The Super Eagles forward now boasts 13 goals and four assists in 20 league appearances this season, building on an exceptional previous campaign in which he registered 37 goals in 41 matches.
