Galatasaray head coach, Okan Buruk has revealed the reason behind his decision to omit Victor Osimhen from his side’s clash with Gaziantep.
Osimhen was a surprise omission from the Turkish Super Lig champions opening league game of the campaign against Gaziantep.
The forward’s absence was not felt as the Yellow and Reds comfortably won the game 3-0.
The Nigeria international spent last season on loan at the club.
Osimhen only joined Galatasaray on a permanent transfer two weeks ago.
Osimhen had a five- or six-day training period. “Playing here during that period could have been risky for him,” Buruk told CNN Turk.
