Okan Buruk's side will face another Istanbul derby at 5 pm today against newly promoted fourth placer Eyupspor at the Ali Sami Yen Spor Kompleksi.
Osimhen is expected to lead the attack in the continued absence of strike partner Mauro Icardi, and the Nigerian may have given away his next move to fans.
As seen in a video shared on Instagram by Galatasaray, the Super Eagles striker is practising free kicks, something he has never scored before in his career.
As noted by Transfermarkt, only five of Osimhen’s goals for Galatasaray have come at the RAMS Park, but his performances have made him a fan-favourite.
The Turkish champions continue to seek means of turning his loan move from Napoli into a permanent transfer.
Galatasaray eye Nigerian forward
Legit.ng reported that Galatasaray eye a Nigerian forward to partner Osimhen in attack after the unfortunate season-ending injury to Mauro Icardi.
The Turkish giants identified the forward, who is struggling for playing time at Bayer Leverkusen, as one of the candidates to provide support for Osimhen in January.
