Victor Osimhen does not wear the captain’s armband during Galatasaray’s 3-3 pre-season friendly draw against Rennes at the Ali Sami Yen Sports Complex, also known as RAMS Park. In the match, Galatasaray take an early lead from a corner kick, with Gabriel Sara delivering a cross that Osimhen rises to meet. Osimhen later scores for Galatasaray as the teams finish 3-3. After the goal, Osimhen is reported to have refused to wear the captain’s armband when it was presented, which sparked online discussion and speculation about his situation at the club.
One report focuses on the on-field incident, describing the refusal as occurring during the same match in which Osimhen contributes a goal. Another outlet frames the moment by saying the rejection of the armband is linked to broader questions surrounding Osimhen’s future. The available accounts agree on the basic events: the friendly’s scoreline, Osimhen’s involvement in the game, and his refusal to take the armband. Neither source provides an official explanation from the player or Galatasaray in the material provided.
