Former Turkish referee and pundit Ahmet Çakar has launched a scathing attack on Galatasaray vice president Abdullah Kavukcu and football agent George Gardi over their failed attempt to sign Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen from Napoli.

Osimhen Saga: Galatasaray Blasted Over Failed €75m Bid

The Turkish giants had reportedly tabled a massive €75 million offer to secure Osimhen on a permanent deal following his successful loan stint at the club last season. However, despite the record-breaking bid, Napoli has yet to respond definitively, and negotiations have stalled.

Frustrated by the breakdown in talks, Çakar described the situation as an embarrassment to Galatasaray, criticizing both Kavukcu and Gardi for poor handling of the high-profile transfer.
