Buruk expressed his admiration for Osimhen's performance after the Nigerian international ahead of their clash against Sivasspor in the Turkish Super Lig. 

“Osimhen works hard, scores, assists. He is in great form and doing very well,” Buruk stated per a post by Skorer on X.com. 

Victor Osimhen celebrates in the Europa League.

“His first characteristic is that he plays for the team, more than goals and assists. He makes an effort for the team, trying to make his teammate score the goal he can score. This mentality is very important and valuable. When we display this mentality as a team, no one can stand in front of Galatasaray.”

Osimhen's impact has been felt not only in Turkey but also in Europe, where he has played a crucial role in Galatasaray's campaign in the UEFA Europa League. 

A proud Okan Buruk hails Osimhen's team-first mentality at Galatasaray.

His ability to find the back of the net consistently has made him a standout player for the Lions, who are aiming for both domestic and European glory this season.

The 25-year-old striker has quickly adapted to life at Rams Park, becoming an integral part of Buruk's squad. His recent performances have drawn praise from fans, with many noting his exceptional skill and work ethic on the pitch.

Happy Osimhen with his teammates.

Osimhen’s unselfish play and scoring ability will be vital to the Lions’ ambitions, including holding off competition from Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce, their biggest rivals, in their bid to defend the Lig. 

With an unbeaten record across all competitions so far this season, the club looks poised for a thrilling campaign—one that could see them achieve significant success with Osimhen leading the charge.
