If Greenwood hadn't suffered a major injury, he wouldn't be at Fenerbahçe right now. That is the first thing that needs to be acknowledged.
As for Osimhen, he didn't receive transfer offers from major European clubs. Galatasaray is paying him 25 million euros a year, including bonuses—and that is a net 25 million euros. There isn't a club in Europe that would pay that kind of money.
Returning to Greenwood: he is still very young. If he makes the expected leap in performance while in Türkiye, he could find himself playing for big clubs in the Premier League again.
Most major European clubs would not sign Greenwood because of the attempted rape, assault, and coercive behavior charges he faced in January 2022. Even though the charges were dropped, some of these clubs wouldn't want to associate themselves with the Jamaican player. There was opposition from some fans of Olympique de Marseille when Roberto De Zerbi wanted to sign him. But the coach insisted on getting his services because he believed in him. Turkish league might be a little bit tolerant.
Victor is still at Galatasaray because he doesn't want to reduce his wages. The Turkish side is paying him what he would hardly get at any top European club.
Nevertheless, the beauty of these players is that they are performing well. It is more disappointing to pay high amounts for players, yet they
He was cleared of wrongdoing under the law, yet Manchester United decided to let him go following their own internal investigation.
This situation might raise some questions in my mind, but perhaps the club simply didn't want to be associated with such an incident, even if he was innocent.
I hope he has turned over a new leaf. After all, you can count the players in the world who are equally effective with both feet on the fingers of one hand.
I was surprised yesterday when I saw him step up to take the penalty with his right foot. Even though he missed the initial spot-kick, he followed up on the rebound with his left foot and scored.
He is a fantastic footballer—perhaps the best to join Fenerbahçe since Alex. I hope he follows in Alex's footsteps by both scoring plenty of goals and having a child every two years.
That’s exactly what Alex did. During his time in Türkiye, he earned a great salary, scored lots of goals, and had a child every two or three years. As far as I know, of his three children, two—or perhaps even all three—were born in Türkiye.
