Ex-Turkish Star Blames Buruk’s Overreliance on Osimhen for Galatasaray’s Slump
Former Turkish youth international Erman Toroğlu has slammed Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk for leaning too heavily on Victor Osimhen. Toroğlu argued in a recent interview that Buruk neglected to build a team capable of winning without its injured striker. He pointed to a 2-1 loss to Trabzonspor, a narrow win over Göztepe and a 1-1 draw with Kocaelispor as evidence of the coach’s failings. He also criticised Buruk’s handling of Mauro Icardi, saying the Argentine never got consistent playing time and felt alienated. There is hope ahead as Osimhen has returned to training and could be back in the squad before month’s end, potentially just in time for the derby against Fenerbahçe.
