Galatasaray insider Eyüp Yıldız has backed Michy Batshuayi to bang in the goals for the team in the absence of Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen.
Galatasaray on Monday announced that Osimhen suffered a muscle injury during Sunday’s Turkish Super Lig clash at Sivasspor.
The club further said no timeline has been determined for when he will be fit again.
Osimhen scored from the penalty spot as Galatasaray won 3-2 at Sivasspor to consolidate their leadership of the league.

However, with the absence of the Nigerian international, Yıldız, in a chat with habersarikirmizi.com, stated that the Belgian star will get the job done for Galatasaray.
“Osimhen is out for 2 weeks but I trust Batshuayi. He will be effective when he plays as a classic centre forward and not as a link player.
“Batshuayi is an effective name in the penalty area and around it, he also has aerial ball superiority. The only problem is that he misses a lot of goals but Osimhen was missing too.”
