Turkish football manager Fatih Terim has praised Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen, describing him as one of the best strikers in world football. Terim, who once managed Galatasaray, lauded Osimhen's clinical finishing, commanding presence, and ability to capitalize on defensive mistakes.
The 27-year-old forward, according to Terim, is an exceptional striker, among the best globally. Even when he isn't focused on scoring, Osimhen can still find the back of the net, Terim explained. He can score even when there's no obvious opportunity, indicating Osimhen's consistent goal-scoring prowess.
Terim also noted Osimhen's knack for exploiting small defensive errors, placing him in a league of his own. The striker's main requirement, according to Terim, is to control emotional reactions and avoid psychological tension.
Despite suffering a groin injury that forced him out of Galatasaray's recent matches, Osimhen was still included in Nigeria's preliminary 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying squad by head coach Eric Chelle.
