Victor Osimhen will take bigger responsibilities at Galatasaray starting from next season, according to head coach Okan Buruk.
Osimhen is highly respected among his teammates with his goals, helping the Yellow and Reds win a domestic double last season.
The 27-year-old has netted 20 times across all competitions this season, with Galatasaray closing in on a fourth consecutive league title.
Former Argentina international Mauro Icardi, who is the current captain of the team, is expected to leave at the end of the season.
Buruk hinted the club is considering naming Osimhen one of the captains.
“Of course. Our president and board, together with me, will make the best decision on that. He’s a very strong leader, and he is already one of the hidden captains within the team,” Buruk declared.
