Football/ Victor Osimhen shines as Galatasaray’s game-changer

Victor Osimhen has wasted no time making an impact at Galatasaray, proving why he’s considered one of the most lethal forwards in modern football. The Nigerian striker, on loan until June 2025, is not only scoring goals but also redefining his role as a decisive team player.

 

In Galatasaray’s thrilling 3-2 victory over Sivasspor on Sunday, Osimhen added to his tally with a crucial goal. This brings his Super Lig record to seven goals and three assists in just nine matches.

 

Expanding his contribution across all competitions, the 25-year-old has netted 10 goals and provided four assists in 13 appearances.

 

 His involvement in 14 of Galatasaray’s goals this season underscores his pivotal role in their attacking lineup.

 

What’s remarkable about Osimhen’s resurgence is his ability to adapt and dominate following a turbulent summer that left doubts about his future. His performances are a testament to his resilience and hunger to excel.

 

With his loan spell ending in mid-2025, the Super Eagle’s standout form is already catching the attention of Europe’s elite clubs.

 

For now, Galatasaray reaps the benefits of having a striker who is not just a scorer but a leader on the pitch—a player who could redefine their season and elevate his own career to even greater heights.
