Turkish top snack brand Ülker Çizi has teamed up with Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen on screen for its latest advert.
The commercial trailer, being Osimhen’s first endorsement since joining Galatasaray on a season-long loan from Napoli centres around the Nigerian goal-scoring prowess in the Turkish Super Lig.
The Ülker Çizi snack advert, which dropped on Tuesday, took social media platforms by storm, as it has gone viral.
Osimhen gave a hint as to why he opted to feature in the Ülker Çizi snack television advert.
“Football is a very important sport in Türkiye, as it is in the world, and it has a side that makes people happy.
“Just like snacks. When you eat Çizi, it satisfies people’s hunger and makes them happy.
“When this fun offer came from Ülker, I said ‘Why not?’ Now, I am very happy to be together with Çizgien, who wears a mask like me and makes people happy in this commercial.”
Interestingly, Ülker is also a sponsor of Galatasaray’s Istanbul bitter rivals Fenerbahce.
