Champions League: We are fully prepared for Juventus game – Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen
As Galatasaray prepare to travel to Turin for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League tie, striker Victor Osimhen has signaled that the Turkish side will approach the match with both caution and ambition.
“We’ll take the field with the awareness of having won the first match 5–2, but also with the awareness that our opponent is Juventus. It will be a long 90 minutes, one full of struggle. We’ve done our preparations, and we’re waiting for them,” he said.
“No match is easy anymore. We could even say that they were the favourites. Right now, 90 minutes will feel like a very long time. But everyone will step onto the field fully prepared.”
The Nigeria forward acknowledged the challenge of facing a team of Juventus’ caliber.
“No match is easy anymore. We could even say that they were the favourites. Right now, 90 minutes will feel like a very long time. But everyone will step onto the field fully prepared,” he added.
Despite missing Galatasaray’s last league game, Osimhen insists the recent setback has only strengthened the squad’s resolve.
“After the poor result we got in the league, there’s added importance to achieving a good outcome here.
“We are ready for them. We will be just like in the first match. We won’t sit back and defend; we will attack.”
With Osimhen leading the line, Galatasaray will aim to maintain their impressive advantage from the first leg while continuing their offensive approach, a strategy that could make for a thrilling encounter against the Italian giants.
