Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has once again expressed his deep affection for Galatasaray after their intense 0-0 draw with Fenerbahçe on Monday.
The highly anticipated match, which saw a massive police presence of reportedly 32,000 officers and foreign referees to ensure a fair game, ended without a goal. Despite the lack of goals, the match was an exciting display of skill and determination from both teams.
Osimhen, who has been a key player for Galatasaray this season, posed a significant threat to Fenerbahçe’s defense despite being man-marked throughout the match as he won three fouls, the most in the game.
After the match, Osimhen spoke to the media emphasizing his focus on the present when quizzed if the game was his last against Fenerbahçe as a Galatasaray player: “To be honest, I don’t know… Last few months, nobody ever thought I would come here to a big club like Galatasaray. For me, I live for the moment. What’s going to happen in the summer, I don’t really know.”

Osimhen reiterated his affection for the Turkish side, expressing his love for everyone associated with the club: “I want everyone to understand something – that I really love this club so much, I love these fans, I love everyone associated with this club. From the president, to the coach, to the staff, everyone associated with this club. So for me, it’s a privilege, and I’m really enjoying my time here.”
With a loss avoided, Galatasaray will now focus on securing the title with 12 matches remaining in the season. Winning the Super Lig would mark their third consecutive title, replicating the team’s historic success in the late 1990s.
During that period, Galatasaray won four consecutive league titles from the 1996/1997 season to the 1999/2000 season and Osimhen as well as his teammates will be determined to make history by winning the title again this season.
