Former Super Eagles forward Obinna Nsofor has advised Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen to leave Galatasaray if he hopes to be regarded as one of the best strikers in world football.
Osimhen recently played a key role in helping Galatasaray secure their second consecutive Turkish league title, further enhancing his reputation as one of Africa’s leading forwards.
However, Nsofor believes the former Napoli striker must test himself at a club capable of consistently challenging for the UEFA Champions League title.
“Victor Osimhen has done enough at Galatasaray. If he truly wants to become the best striker in the world, then he must move to a club that can compete seriously for the UEFA Champions League,” Nsofor said during an interview with Brila FM.
“Right now, the only thing separating him from the very top is winning at the highest level in Europe,” he added.
The former Inter Milan attacker acknowledged Galatasaray’s status as one of Turkey’s biggest clubs but insisted that Osimhen should now aim for a move to Europe’s elite sides.
“Galatasaray is a big club, nobody can deny that, but when you talk about clubs expected to win the UEFA Champions League, they are not among the favourites.
Osimhen is already at the level where he should be competing with the very best strikers every single season,” Nsofor stated.
