It’s difficult to find player like Osimhen, he belongs to different class – Gomez

Galatasaray assistant coach Ismael Gomez says it is difficult to find a player in the mould of Victor Osimhen.

Osimhen joined the Yellow and Reds on season-long loan deal from Napoli in September.

The Nigerian has settled down well in his new environment, scoring eight goals in nine appearances across all competitions.

Gomez said the forward has qualities that is rare in modern day football.

“Last season, Icardi dominated the league not only with the number of goals he scored but also with the assists. This is what we want from Osimhen, to dominate the matches and the league like Icardi,” Gomez told Marca.

“He attracts the attention of the entire opponent’s defence line. He can create positions on his own. It is really difficult to see a football player with his athletic capacity in the world. It is not easy to find a player who combines his height, speed and coordination level.”
