According to the report, Osimhen spoke directly with the Swiss centre-back over the phone as Galatasaray stepped up efforts to add defensive reinforcements this summer.

The club has also opened talks with Akanji’s agent as they explore a possible agreement.

Akanji, a seasoned international who has featured at the top level in Europe, would give Galatasaray experience and physical presence at centre back if the move goes ahead.

It remains unclear whether Akanji is ready to leave Manchester City or whether the clubs can agree terms.

For now, the story centres on Osimhen’s personal call and ongoing discussions between Galatasaray and the player’s representatives.
