Great news from Victor Osimhen: “I will be at Galatasaray in the second half.”
The Nigerian player responded to a journalist’s question after the Besiktas derby, “Will you be here in the second half of the season?” with, “Yes, I will be here.” Victor Osimhen, who joined Galatasaray on loan from Napoli and has been the subject of speculation about returning during the winter break, put an end to those rumors. When asked if he would be at Galatasaray in the second half of the season, he replied, “Yes, I will be here.”
“I CAN’T BE STOPPED WITH MAURO ICARDI.”
Osimhen argued that they should continue playing together with Mauro Icardi, saying, “Mauro and I understand each other very well. We work a lot on playing together in training. No defense can stop our attacking line. If they stop me, Mauro will go; if they stop him, I will go.” When reminded that he scored his fourth goal of the season in the league, Osimhen said, “Contributing goals is valuable, I’m happy, but winning for the team is more important.”
“I DON’T CARE IF THEY TRY TO SMIRCH MY IMAGE.”
Galatasaray’s Baris Alper expressed his happiness over the derby victory and regarded the criticisms of his performance as normal. The young player said, “There will be criticisms at Galatasaray. I focus on my own performance. I’ve gone through an intense season. There will always be criticisms as long as I play at Galatasaray. Criticisms are not a problem for me. My coach gives me chances. I am an ambitious kid. I have never been afraid. You have to fight. You might play poorly, but you can’t run poorly.” Regarding his clash with the security guard after winning the match against Elfsborg, Baris said, “When I came off the field, one of the kids seemed very sweet to me. I wanted to give him my shirt. At that moment, I collided with the security guard. There are many brothers watching me. They are trying to smear my image, but I don’t care. I want to give them a good image of Baris Alper Yilmaz.”
