Fenerbahce manager José Mourinho has stirred controversy by accusing Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen of diving too often. Osimhen, who recently joined Galatasaray on loan from Napoli, is set to face Mourinho’s Fenerbahce in the Turkish League.
Mourinho recalled a previous conversation with Osimhen, where he praised the striker as one of Africa’s best players but advised him to avoid simulation on the pitch.
Mourinho expressed his admiration for Osimhen’s talent but reiterated his concerns about the striker’s behavior during matches. He emphasized that while Osimhen is an exceptional player, his tendency to dive is problematic. This ongoing dialogue adds an intriguing layer to the upcoming matches as Osimhen prepares to compete against Mourinho’s side.
