Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has called on Galatasaray to wake up after his brace rescued the Turkish champions from an opening-day setback against newly promoted Çorum.

Osimhen struck twice as Galatasaray were held to a 2-2 draw, earning their first point of what promises to be a demanding 2026/27 season.

Despite finding the net twice, the Nigerian striker was far from satisfied with the result and described the outcome as a disappointment, urging his teammates to learn from the early warning.

“It’s a disappointment. We didn’t see a small opponent. Such opponents are difficult. We knew they would force it, and so it happened,” Osimhen said after the game.

“We need to wake up. We are experiencing disappointment. Let this be a wake-up call. We know that all the next matches will be difficult. We will continue on our way by taking lessons and correcting ourselves.”
