After Galatasaray’s thrilling 3-3 tie with Dynamo Kyiv two weeks ago, Turkish journalist Tolga Bozduman accused Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen of assault. Osimhen has now filed a defamation case against Bozduman.
Amid mounting controversy over the alleged incident, the 26-year-old Galatasaray forward, who has been in incredible form this season with 16 goals and five assists in 21 appearances, is now under investigation off the field.
Bozduman claimed that Osimhen became aggressive and punched him while he was attempting to take photos of the striker outside a venue.
Reports alleged that the Napoli loanee offered money to have footage of the altercation deleted, further fueling the controversy.
However, Osimhen has vehemently denied the allegations, labeling them as “false and malicious” through Super Eagles media officer Promise Efoghe.
