Speaking on the Asist Analiz YouTube channel, Engin highlighted Osimhen’s combination of strength, speed, and presence, calling him a player who “transcends the human norm,” according to habersarikirmizi.
Engin joked about the Nigerian striker’s power, saying, “What does this guy consume, honestly? He must be feasting on lions. Osimhen has transformed into a lion. Icardi has been overshadowed.”
His praise followed Osimhen’s influential performance during Galatasaray’s 1–0 victory in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 clash. In the seventh minute, Osimhen rose to meet a corner, delivering a precise header that Mario Lemina expertly redirected into the net, giving the hosts a crucial early advantage.
Osimhen’s energy and dominance set the tone for the match, helping Galatasaray withstand sustained pressure from a resilient Liverpool side. Every sprint, challenge, and ball control reinforced Engin’s view that Osimhen is a rare talent capable of shaping games almost single-handedly.
