Dries Mertens Exclusive: Galatasaray ‘lucky’ to have Osimhen & Hazard ‘not to blame’ for Belgium woes

The Obi One Podcast · 2025-04-10

Dries Mertens sits down with our very own John Obi Mikel to discuss life in Turkey with Galatasaray. The Belgian forward also reflects on finally ending Napoli’s 33 year wait for the Scudetto, explains why there was no problem with Eden Hazard in the Belgium set up and reserves special praise for team-mate Victor Osimhen.

He may be 37 now, but Dries Mertens - Napoli’s all-time leading goalscorer with 148 goals - still has plenty left to achieve in the game. Enjoy!
