Following the Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe match in the Super League at Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium, Victor Osimhen’s heated involvement in a late-game conflict has been explained by club sources. The tension erupted near the touchline when Fenerbahçe's substitute goalkeeper, İrfan Can Eğribayat, entered the area where Galatasaray players were preparing to restart play and insisted on warming up.
According to Habersarikimizi, Galatasaray players, led by forward Barış Alper Yılmaz and Osimhen, reportedly reacted with fierce anger to Eğribayat’s presence. The Nigerian striker, known for his intense competitive spirit, was seen confronting the goalkeeper alongside Yılmaz, demanding that the goalkeeper return to his own half. Eyewitnesses described a brief but heated exchange as players from both sides quickly gathered in the vicinity.
After the final whistle. While no physical altercation occurred, the confrontation echoed the persistent rivalry and psychological battles that define matches between Turkey’s two biggest clubs. Osimhen’s passionate defense of his team’s space aligns with the all-action mentality he has brought to Galatasaray since his arrival.
