Ex-Chelsea defender backs Osimhen for Premier League move

Former Chelsea defender William Gallas has said Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen deserves to play in one of Europe’s top leagues, insisting the Super Eagles star is good enough for the Premier League or La Liga.

Gallas made the comments while discussing Osimhen’s current spell in Turkey with Galatasaray, praising the striker’s consistent goal-scoring form. “With all due respect to the Turkish league, Osimhen should be playing in the Premier League or La Liga,” Gallas said.

The former France international added that the Nigerian forward has already proven himself at the highest level. “He has pace, strength and knows how to score goals. That’s what top clubs need,” he noted.

Osimhen has been one of Galatasaray’s key attacking players this season, continuing the form that made him one of Europe’s most sought-after forwards.

Gallas believes a move to one of Europe’s elite leagues could be the next step in the Super Eagles striker’s career.
