Victor Osimhen continues to get praise from fans and opponents since joining Galatasaray.
The loaned star attacker from Napoli had a strong debut in the 5-1 win against Çaykur Rizespor.
In his debut outing, the Nigerian striker assisted and got plaudits.
One of the numerous praises comes from former Beşiktaş legend Nihat Kahveci.
The 44-year-old, who spent most of his career with the Black Eagles, praised Osimhen’s debut performance and underlined his best qualities.

Kahveci discussed Osimhen’s performance after the match.
“I thought Osimhen was physically strong. He showed his athleticism by leaping on all crosses “Yenisafak quoted Kahveci.
Osimhen was anticipated to score. Batshuayi passed brilliantly, and Osimhen hit the ball well with his inside foot, but the custodian saved.
“After that, did he have many clear scoring chances? He had few such chances at Galatasaray.”
Continuing to praise Osimhen’s performance, the 44-year-old said:
“He directed the ball to the custodian and defenders when it came to him and defended well in Rizespor’s half.
“Osimhen scores often. He is always engaged. Create more opportunities for him and he’ll score more Galatasaray goals.”
Osimhen will miss Galatasaray’s match against Gaziantep FK but will play in their top-of-the-table clash against Fenerbahçe in September, according to Forza Cimbom.
