Former Marseille and France striker has high praise for Nigerian Victor Osimhen!

Former Olympique Marseille striker Bafetimbi Gomis has been full of praise for the work Nigerian Victor Osimhen is doing with the Turkish side, and for Nigeria as well, as he continues to perform and break records in the Turkish super league as well.

Nigerian Victor Osimhen, 26, has been having an excellent season with Galatasaray since arriving in Turkey on loan last September.

The Nigerian's stats for Galatasaray this season!

The Nigerian has scored 30 goals in all competitions for his team this season, and his team has become the dominant team in Turkey since the renaissance made by the management by signing all these big names.

I'm proud of him, Osimhen is defending the colours of Galatasaray as he should be, He is doing an exemplary job with his performance and I am proud of him. I hope he leads us to the championship and makes Galatasaray, Africa, and all of Nigeria proud. He is a very hard-working and hungry player.

Bafetimbi Gomis said.

I don’t have any advice to give to Osimhen,” Gomis added. “Osimhen does justice to the Galatasaray jersey. He already knows that he is loved at Galatasaray and he should continue to make us proud and score more goals. I wish him the best.

Bafetimbi Gomis concluded.

Having hung up his boots in 2024, Gomis understands the pride of representing Galatasaray’s iconic yellow and red colors. The ex-French striker enjoyed a highly successful spell in Istanbul, claiming the Süper Lig golden boot in 2018 as the club secured the championship.

Though Gomis boasts extensive experience from his stints at Lyon, Swansea City, and Marseille, he has been particularly impressed by Osimhen’s seamless transition to Turkish football.
