Fenerbache captain Milan Skriniar has revealed the team’s plan to stop Victor Osimhen in the Istanbul derby.
Osimhen scored twice the last time Fenerbahce faced Galatasaray in the Turkish Super Lig last season.
The Nigeria international has recovered from a minor hamstring injury, and is expected to lead Galatasaray’s attack in the Intercontinental derby on Monday (today).
Skriniar and Osimhen clashed during their time in Italy.
The centre-back’s aerial collision with Osimhen in November 2021 when Napoli battled Inter Milan in Italy has since caused the Nigerian to wear a protective face mask.
Skriniar stated that it will require a collective effort to stop the Nigerian from scoring against his team again.
“Both (Osimhen, Icardi) are very good centre-forwards. Of course, they have different types of characteristics, but they are very good players,” he told Bein Sports.
“We will see what we need to do defensively on Monday. We need to play compactly and aggressively, and be together so we can stop them.”
