Bayern Scouts Watch Osimhen in Champions League Clash

Bayern Munich officials were present in Istanbul to watch Victor Osimhen during Galatasaray’s 5-2 Champions League victory over Juventus. The German club is planning for the future and is looking for a long-term striker to lead their attack.

Although Harry Kane remains a top scorer, Bayern are aware that the England captain is in the later stage of his career. The club wants a younger forward who can press, run and lead the line in the years ahead. Their current loan striker has not fully impressed, so Bayern’s recruitment team is exploring other options.

Osimhen is one of the players on their list. The Nigerian striker has continued to build his reputation in Europe after strong spells in France and Italy, and he has maintained his high level since joining Galatasaray in a big-money move.

Against Juventus, Osimhen did not score, but he played a key role in the win. He provided two assists and caused constant problems for the Italian defence with his pace, strength and pressing. His pressure led to mistakes that helped Galatasaray score important goals in the match.

Other European giants are also keeping an eye on the Super Eagles forward, but Galatasaray are not keen to sell him. The Turkish champions are expected to demand a huge fee if any club wants to sign their star striker.
