Okocha tells Osimhen to Stay in Turkey After his Great Season with Galatasaray
Former Super Eagles captain Austin Jay-Jay Okocha has shared advice for striker Victor Osimhen as he faces a big decision this summer. Osimhen’s future at Galatasaray remains uncertain after his season-long loan from Napoli ended in May. While Galatasaray want to sign him permanently, the Nigerian star has also attracted interest from clubs across Europe and Saudi Arabia.
Speaking to Turkish broadcaster TRT Spor, Okocha, who once played for Galatasaray’s rivals Fenerbahçe, encouraged Osimhen to consider making sacrifices for the right move. “Turkey is an excellent place to live and play football,” Okocha said. “Osimhen had a fantastic season with Galatasaray and seems happy there. Sometimes, you need to make sacrifices when making career decisions. If he’s happy, why not stay?”
Okocha added he wasn’t sure where Osimhen would go next but wished him success wherever he lands. Last season, Osimhen scored an impressive 37 goals across all competitions for Galatasaray, clinching the Golden Boot as the Turkish Super Lig’s top scorer.
Former Manchester United player, Jesse Lingard, has revealed that he has mutually agreed to leave FC Seoul and his contract will end. It is reported that he will leave next week.
It can be noted that the footballer joined in February 2024 and has made 66 appearances since then, scoring 18 goals.
The player shared his experience on social media, saying “My time in South Korea has been unbelievable — the football, the atmosphere, and the passion around this club have been top class.”
“The love, support, and appreciation you have shown towards me over these last two years has been truly amazing. I’ll always be grateful for the opportunity to play for such a massive club.”
Former footballer, Rio Ferdinand compares Arsenal star player, Bukayo Saka, to Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.
When comparing players, he shared that: “When Saka is on it, he looks unplayable,” however he also stated that even with Salah’s stature, he is strong.
He has got the strength like Mohamed Salah. He is small in frame and size when you look at him, but do you ever see him get pushed off the ball?
“You don’t really see people take the ball off him or put him on his arse. He is a strong little guy.”
Former Chelsea player Frank Leboeuf speaks on recent league matches and names two clubs that can really challenge Arsenal this season, Manchester City and Chelsea.
During a recent interview when speaking about Arsenal, he shared “They are still the big favourites [for the title], but they will have to prove it. They lost four points against Sunderland and Chelsea. Manchester City are back, Chelsea are still there.”
“We will have the winter period, which will start very soon, so let’s see,” he said.
