Osimhen Targets 14th Süper Lig Victim As Galatasaray Face Konyaspor

Victor Osimhen will be aiming to score at least twice against a 14th different club in the Turkish Süper Lig when Galatasaray face Konyaspor away on Friday.

The Nigerian striker has scored once in his only previous appearance against Konyaspor and will be looking to add to that tally when the two sides meet in the opening fixture of Week 10.

Osimhen was included in Galatasaray’s squad for the encounter but did not travel with the team on Thursday because of family reasons, according to Turkish broadcaster HT Spor.

The 27-year-old is expected to travel to Konya on Friday and join his teammates ahead of the match.

Galatasaray will be without suspended trio Abdülkerim Bardakcı, Kaan Ayhan and Kazımcan Karataş for the fixture.

Osimhen will hope to be available to help the Turkish champions secure victory and extend his scoring record against Konyaspor, while adding another club to the list of Süper Lig sides against which he has scored at least twice.
