Ahead of the crucial UEFA Champions League showdown against Galatasaray, Juventus coach Luciano Spalletti has shared his thoughts on Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Spalletti, speaking during his pre-match press conference, acknowledged the quality of Osimhen and Argentine forward Mauro Icardi, describing both players as dangerous but with contrasting styles of play.

“Both Icardi and Osimhen are great but different players. One creates chaos, the other tries to use this chaos as an advantage". 

"We have studied our opponent and know what they would do, but we aim to play our own game,” he said.

Osimhen has been a key figure for Galatasaray this season, bringing pace, power and clinical finishing to the Turkish side’s attack, while Icardi’s experience and positioning continue to make him a constant threat in the final third.

Juventus will be aiming to contain the duo as they seek a positive result in Tuesday’s encounter, which is expected to have significant implications for both sides in the competition.
