95% possible — Victor Osimhen backed to join Premier League club this summer
Victor Osimhen remains one of the hottest properties on the market and reports indicate he could make a move to England this summer.
For Jose Mourinho’s charges, they could halve the current deficit. And with the Yellow Canaries in better form than Galatasaray, a three-point margin is feasibly surmountable.

What Durmaz said
Speaking ahead of the game, Durmaz does not believe the champions can hurt Fenerbahce in transition. He advised the Cim-Bom to utilise Osimhen's aerial prowess and presence, which is the key to victory against Mourinho's team.

"Osimhen constantly receives the ball in the air in Galatasaray,” Durmaz said, per GsGazette. “Fenerbahçe-Anderlecht matches are not a measure. Because there is no man like Osimhen in Anderlecht.
“If you give the opportunity, Osimhen receives the balls. If Galatasaray plays with a crowd in the penalty area, they can have many opportunities. Barış and Sara constantly try blindfolded shots. Osimhen also supports that attack.
“I think Galatasaray cannot play a transition game either. Fenerbahçe will surprise Galatasaray and "He should start with Muslera and apply full-court pressure."
