Galatasaray’s captain, Fernando Muslera, has heaped praise on Victor Osimhen, calling the striker a key asset for the Turkish Super Lig champions.
Osimhen, 26, delivered an outstanding performance on Monday, scoring twice in Galatasaray’s 2-1 win over Caykur Rizespor, continuing his impressive form this season with 14 goals in 18 league matches.
Muslera expressed his admiration for the Nigerian forward, emphasizing his work ethic and determination. “He gives his all every minute, never backing down,” Muslera said.
“We’re fortunate to have him on the team, and his effort played a crucial part in today’s victory. We knew we’d succeed as long as we supported him.”
The victory came after a solid second-half performance, which Muslera attributed to effective play from set pieces. With the win secured, Galatasaray now shifts focus to Thursday’s crucial UEFA Europa League play-off second leg against AZ Alkmaar, as they look to continue their strong season across competitions.
