Who will play in place of Icardi at Galatasaray? Here are the 3 names Okan Buruk is considering
Mauro Icardi, who is injured, will be unable to play in 2 matches for Galatasaray. Who will replace the star footballer has become a subject of curiosity.
Galatasaray announced yesterday that Mauro Icardi will be unable to play for a while due to an injury.
Icardi, who suffered fractures in his facial bones following a challenge with Oosterwalde during the Fenerbahçe derby, will miss the Konyaspor and Sivasspor matches.
It has already become a subject of curiosity as to whom head coach Okan Buruk will give a chance in Icardi's place. Icardi's backup, Cedric Bakambu, will be unable to play as he is at the Africa Cup of Nations.
According to a report by Hürriyet, the strongest candidate is the third-choice striker, Halil Dervişoğlu. Halil Dervişoğlu, who has appeared in 12 matches across all competitions this season and played for 145 minutes, has contributed 2 goals.
Another possibility for Okan Buruk is Barış Alper Yılmaz. If Barış Alper is played as a striker, it is expected that Kazımcan Karataş will be given the starting spot at left-back.
The final possibility for Okan Buruk is Wilfried Zaha. Zaha has played in the center-forward position many times, particularly at Crystal Palace.
