Osimhen: Galatasaray questioned for not signing new striker

Turkish football transfer specialist, Burhan Can Terzi, has questioned the Galatasaray management for not signing a new striker during the summer transfer window.

Can Terzi raised the question after striker Victor Osimhen sustained a groin injury during Galatasaray’s win against İstanbul Başakşehir F.K earlier this month.

Galatasaray signed some players, including Rafael Leao, Aleksey Batrakov, Deniz Gül and Lesley Ugochukwu during the summer, but failed to sign a top striker who can compete with Osimhen.

“Osimhen’s not here . Why didn’t you bring in your striker back in June? From June to September, the Galatasaray management left Okan Buruk without a striker,” Can Terzi said as quoted by Forza Cimbom.

Osimhen is not expected to play Galatasaray’s next match against Kocaelispor in the Turkish Super Lig on Sunday due to injury.

The Nigeria international also missed Galatasaray’s defeat to Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League in mid-week.
