Fenerbahce captain Milan Skriniar has stated that the team will do their best to stop Victor Osimhen from scoring in the Istanbul derby, Completesports.com reports.
The Yellow Canaries will face Galatasaray in the Istanbul derby at RAMS Park on Monday night (today).
Skriniar’s aerial collision in November 2021 during Napoli’s clash with Inter Milan in Italy led Osimhen to wear a protective face mask.
The centre-back is prepared to face the Nigeria international once more.
“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.”
Galatasaray currently lead the Super Lig table with 32 points, just one point ahead of bitter city rivals Fenerbahce after 13 rounds of matches.
