Victor Osimhen finished his loan spell at Galatasaray in style, scoring in their 2-0 win over Istanbul Basaksehir on the last day of the Turkish Super Lig season. The Nigerian striker found the net in the 84th minute to seal the victory after Dries Mertens opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 15th minute.
By the Numbers:
- 26 league goals in the 2024/25 season
- 37 total goals across all competitions
- 7 assists during his loan spell
- Galatasaray finished with 95 points from 30 wins
Osimhen's successful season in Turkey has shown his quality as one of Africa's top strikers. His consistent performances have helped Galatasaray dominate the league while putting himself in the shop window for potential suitors this summer.
Super Eagles fans will be encouraged by Osimhen maintaining his sharpness ahead of Nigeria's upcoming World Cup qualifiers. His form suggests he'll be crucial to the national team's attacking plans.
All eyes are on where Osimhen will play next season. Will he return to Napoli or seek a new challenge elsewhere in Europe? His impressive goal tally in Turkey will certainly attract interest from top clubs.
