Galatasaray forward Victor Osimhen has described the Turkish giants as one of the three most passionate football clubs in the world.
Speaking in a recent interview with The Players' Tribune, the Nigerian striker reflected on the electric atmosphere surrounding the club and recalled a conversation he had with Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk after a UEFA Champions League clash.
“Galatasaray is one of the top three clubs in the world in terms of passion,” Osimhen said.
He added that Van Dijk was impressed by the intensity inside the stadium following their encounter against Liverpool F.C., quoting the defender as saying, “What an atmosphere this is!”
Osimhen’s remarks come after he inspired Galatasaray to a crucial victory over Juventus F.C. in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League Round of 16 playoff tie on Tuesday.
The striker has been instrumental for the Turkish champions this season, with his performances continuing to draw attention both on and off the pitch.
