Former Super Eagles midfielder, John Mikel Obi, has revealed he spoke with Victor Osimhen after the summer transfer window shut.
Mikel Obi tried to get Chelsea to sign Osimhen, but the move eventually did not happen.
Osimhen has since sealed a season-long loan deal to Galatasaray.
Speaking on the new episode of his podcast, Mikel Obi said: “He was disappointed it did not happen.
“I gave him a call after the transfer window shut. I gave him a call and we spoke for about 20 minutes.
“I told him that I’m always here for you. Keep your head down, keep working hard, training.
“Just make sure when the time is right, you are ready.”
