Osimhen’s Form Earns Accolades at Galatasaray

Victor Osimhen’s sensational form has earned him a plethora of accolades, cementing his status as one of the most prolific Nigerian players in European football.

 

The 26-year-old striker’s loan stint at Galatasaray has been nothing short of phenomenal, with his impressive goal-scoring record and instrumental role in the team’s success.

 

Galatasaray’s dominance in the Turkish Süper Lig was largely due to Osimhen’s contributions, as he netted an impressive 26 goals to emerge as the league’s top scorer.

 

The team’s triumphant campaign saw them secure their third consecutive league title with a remarkable 95 points, losing only one game throughout the season.

 

Osimhen’s influence extended beyond the league, as he played a crucial role in Galatasaray’s Turkish Cup victory. The team’s 3-0 win over Trabzonspor on May 14, 2025, was largely due to Osimhen’s outstanding performance, which earned him the Man of the Match award.

 

He scored five goals in the Turkish Cup, leading the team to their second trophy of the season.

 

The Nigerian striker’s lethal finishing and consistency throughout the season were rewarded with the Super Lig Golden Boot, as he finished ahead of Istanbul’s Krzysztof Piatek. Osimhen’s impressive tally of 26 goals in the league was a testament to his skill and dedication.

 

As the season drew to a close, Osimhen was named the Super Lig Player of the Season, capping off an incredible campaign.

 

His 37th goal across all competitions, scored in a 2-0 victory over Istanbul Basaksehir on the final day of the league, marked a high note to end his loan spell with Galatasaray. Napoli, his parent club, will undoubtedly be taking notice of Osimhen’s remarkable performance, which has sealed his incredible impact since joining Galatasaray.
