Turkish commentator suggests other Super Lïg teams should watch Osimhen to learn from him

Victor Osimhen came off the bench in Galatasaray's 3-0 win over Antalyaspor and scored a brilliant bicycle kick.

Turkish commentator, Serdar Ali Çelikler, has admitted Galatasaray are head and shoulders above the remaining teams in the Turkish Super Lïg, Soccernet.ng reports.

Okan Buruk’s side are currently top of the league and are unbeaten in nine games, winning eight of those. They’ve also scored the most goals in the league (27), and can confidently boast of housing the best attacking talents in Michy Batshuayi, Mauro Icardi, Dries Mertens, Hakim Ziyech and Victor Osimhen.

Following Gala’s 3-0 victory over Antalyaspor, Ali Çelikler believes the remaining teams in the Turkish league have a lot of catching up to do to reach the CimBom height. However he suggested Gala can also help by posting training clips involving Osimhen and Icardi on YouTube to help other teams learn.

“I think Galatasaray’s training sessions are of higher quality than some Super Lïg matches. If Galatasaray puts a tough 11v11 training session on YouTube with Osimhen in one team and Icardi in the other, it will be watched more, the 46-year-old told Neo Spor in quotes revealed by FTR.

Osimhen missed Nigeria’s game against Libya during the last International break due to a thigh injury but returned to team training late last week.

The Napoli loanee was subjected to just twelve minutes in Galatasaray’s last game, as he replaced Mauro Icardi. He scored the game’s third goal in the 92nd minute, firing home a bicycle kick from a deflected cross.
