Osimhen, who moved from Napoli to Galatasaray, has been essential to the team’s successful season.

The 26-year-old striker assisted Galatasaray in winning both the domestic cup and the league championship.
In 40 games this season across all competitions, he also recorded eight assists and 36 goals for Galatasaray.
Habersarikirmizi reported that Yalcin stated of Osimhen: “I believe Osimhen is the player of the season.”
In any case, selecting players from other clubs is really challenging.
“You would get at least 6-7 players from Galatasaray if we were to form an eleven.” You wouldn’t only receive a left and a right back.
