Osimhen: No one can teach me how to score

In the UEFA Champions League, Galatasaray beat Lille 4-2 away from home. Victor Osimhen, who scored his fourth goal against his former club, spoke after the match.

Osimhen was reminded that he has at times looked tense on the pitch this season. Asked whether this stems from his desire to win, the Nigerian striker replied "No, no." Saying that comments like this are often made about players, Osimhen said that things sometimes do not go the way he wants, and that what is visible from the outside is not tension but a reaction in the moment.

The star player also stressed that he does not dwell much on the comments directed at him. Osimhen said: "No one can teach me how to play with the ball or how to score, because I am one of the best center forwards in the world."

Touching on the team's priorities as well, Osimhen said: "No individual is above the club. The team is fighting collectively."

The 27-year-old striker had contributed 6 goals and 3 assists in 6 Süper Lig matches before the Lille game. With his goal against Lille, he raised his tally in official matches in a Galatasaray shirt to 7 in the 2026-27 season.
