Morata Says Victor Osimhen is One of the Best Strikers in the World
Galatasaray forward Alvaro Morata has hailed his teammate Victor Osimhen as one of the best strikers in world football.
Both players found the back of the net as Galatasaray cruised to a 5-1 victory over Eyupspor at the Recep Tayyip Erdogan Stadium on Sunday. Morata, who came off the bench, bagged a brace while Osimhen added a goal and an assist to his tally.
Osimhen, currently on loan from Napoli, has been a standout performer for Galatasaray this season, stepping up in the absence of injured captain Mauro Icardi. The Nigerian star has so far notched 31 goals and seven assists in 36 appearances across all competitions for Okan Buruk’s side.
Speaking after the win, Morata praised the 26-year-old, describing him as not just a brilliant footballer but also a great person. “Osimhen is a great person and one of the best centre-forwards in the world,” Morata said via the club’s website.
