Galatasaray captain Fernando Muslera has showered praise on Victor Osimhen following the Nigerian striker’s sensational performance in the team’s 2-1 victory over Caykur Rizespor on Monday night.
Osimhen delivered a match-winning brace for Okan Buruk’s side, taking his goal tally to 12 in 18 league appearances for the reigning Turkish Super Lig champions this season.
Speaking after the game, Muslera described Osimhen as an invaluable asset to the team, emphasizing his relentless work ethic and ability to turn the tide in crucial moments.
“He really puts in a lot of effort and fights every minute. He never gives up. We are all grateful to play with a player like him,” Muslera told the club’s official website.
The veteran goalkeeper credited Osimhen’s determination and resilience, highlighting how the team’s support allowed him to shine.
“We knew we would achieve something as a result of supporting him. Today, he scored the goals that brought us victory. The second half allowed us to find ourselves even better and to score very effectively from a dead ball,” he added.
Osimhen’s stellar form continues to make him a key figure in Galatasaray’s title defense, with his performances proving instrumental in their pursuit of domestic and European success.
