Galatasaray midfielder Lucas Torreira has ranked Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen among the three best footballers in the world, placing the Nigerian above global stars such as Lamine Yamal, Vinícius Jr., Harry Kane and Erling Haaland. “Federico Valverde, Kylian Mbappé, and Victor Osimhen are currently the world’s best footballers,” Torreira said. “I don’t think Šeško can carry the club up front on his own; they will need another No. I don’t think he needs replacing, but someone better who can lift his game as well,” Butt told the Mirror. The former England international identified Osimhen as an ideal candidate, highlighting his physical attributes and goal-scoring versatility.
