Former coach Christian Martin backs Can Uzun-Victor Osimhen partnership at Galatasaray

Galatasaray is pursuing Uzun to strengthen their squad, with negotiations ongoing. Martin believes Uzun's creative qualities, including his vision and final-pass ability, would complement Osimhen's pace, physicality, and movement in attack. He stated that Uzun's ability to play in gaps and draw defenders would create opportunities for a dynamic striker like Osimhen.

While Galatasaray has had a slow start to the transfer window, Uzun is a primary target. Reports indicate progress in signing Uzun, though Frankfurt's valuation, reportedly around €60 million, is a hurdle, with Galatasaray seeking a lower fee, possibly €35 million plus €5 million in bonuses. Uzun's potential arrival would provide another creative option around Osimhen, who is expected to be central to Galatasaray's plans.
