‘Someone better will come’ - Galatasaray legend claims club can do without Osimhen if he leaves

Osimhen has had a major influence throughout his time at Galatasaray after joining on loan from Napoli in September.

In just eleven games in all competitions, the Super Eagles star has delivered five assists and eight goals.

His outstanding performances have drawn interest from a number of top European teams, which has fuelled rumours that he may be leaving.

In an interview with Habersarikirmizi on the 343 Digital YouTube channel, Yılmaz claimed that Galatasaray can get better players if Osimhen and Marco Icardi leave.

He said, "The best center forwards and goalkeepers have always been at Galatasaray. If Icardi won't be at Galatasaray, Osimhen will be there, if Osimhen won't be there, someone better will come. Don't worry.

"I heard about Florya water in Galatasaray and drank it. This is a culture in Galatasaray. If Osimhen comes and suddenly becomes a Galatasaray fan, then there is something there."

Following the transfer rumours flying around, Osimhen has stated that he is not leaving Galatasaray until the end of the season.

Galatasaray supporters remained optimistic that the team would carry on its tradition of signing elite players as the winter transfer window draws near, notwithstanding Osimhen's future.
