Osimhen impact propels Galatasaray to lead important stat in Europe
Galatasaray have been devastating offensively this season in the Turkey Super Lig as well as Europe, and they currently lead the Europa League in a key attacking metric.
The Cim-Bom won the Super Lig with over 100 points last season but were disappointing in Europe. They crashed out of the Champions League group stage and did not make it last the Europa League playoffs.
Former Chelsea star Jason Cundy has expressed his delight at the Blues for not signing Victor Osimhen during the summer transfer window.
Super Eagles star Victor Osimhen has expressed regret over Galatasaray's poor Europa League draw on Thursday.
This season, however, with the addition of Victor Osimhen, their prospects in Europe are better, and they are regarded as one of the favourites to lift the title.
