What makes me better than Osimhen – Batshuayi
Yesterday at 08:00 AM
Galatasaray striker Michy Batshuayi has claimed that he is better than his club teammate Victor Osimhen ‘technically.’
The Belgian player of DR Congolese descent has been playing alongside Osimhen since September when the Nigerian superstar joined the Turkish giants on loan from Italy’s SSC Napoli.
Osimhen, 25, has scored six goals and provided two assists from seven Turkish Super Lig matches this season, while Batshuayi, 31, has netted four goals, and provided two assists from 11 games.
“Of course, I can play as a double forward or as a single forward,” Batshuayi told Galatasaray’s official website.
“But when we look at it, Victor is good at long and aerial balls. I can also make deep runs.
“I am technically better from my perspective. Of course, when you look at this, the coach’s choice is important. We actually offer the coach the necessary options.”
Osimhen and Batshuayi will be in action on Thursday as Galatasaray take on Dutch side AZ Alkmaar in the UEFA Europa League clash.
