Victor Osimhen: Why I dropped Lille’s Nigerian striker to the bench - Galtier

Lille manager Christophe Galtier believes Victor Osimhen will continue to improve after his impressive performance in their 3-0 victory over Saint-Etienne in Wednesday’s Ligue 1 game.

The forward grabbed a brace in his third appearance for the Great Danes after replacing injured Loic Remy to ensure his side clinched their second win of the season.

Galtier has praised the man-of-the-match display from the striker but admitted the forward still needs to improve on his performances.

"Victor Osimhen is only 20-years-old, so he has a lot of room for improvement,” Galtier told the club website.
