Victor Osimhen Set to Become Galatasaray Captain After Mauro Icardi's Exit

Nigeria international Victor Osimhen is expected to take over the captain's armband at Galatasaray following the departure of Argentine forward Mauro Icardi.

The Turkish champions recently confirmed that Icardi has left the club after the expiration of his contract, bringing an end to his successful four-year spell in Istanbul.

According to reports in Turkey, Osimhen is the leading candidate to succeed the former captain after serving as Galatasaray's vice-captain during the 2025/26 season.
