Victor Osimhen scored again for Galatasaray in a 2-0 win over Samsunspor and praised his team’s title push. He addressed rumors linking him to Chelsea and PSG, emphasizing he's focused on the present. With 29 goals this season, his form boosts both Galatasaray’s hopes and Nigeria’s World Cup ambitions.
Victor Osimhen continued his electrifying season on Friday night, scoring Galatasaray’s second goal in a 2-0 victory over Samsunspor. The Nigerian striker, on loan from Napoli, calmly slotted home just moments after the restart, lifting the Turkish giants closer to the Süper Lig title.
Speaking after the match, Osimhen praised Galatasaray’s resilience and ambition. “We have the quality to win every match,” he told the club’s media team. “We need to keep this momentum and fight for the fifth star.”
Osimhen’s goal marked his 29th of the season, a figure that cements his status as one of Europe’s most in-demand forwards. Rumors of a summer move have intensified, with Chelsea, PSG, Manchester United, and Juventus all reportedly tracking the 26-year-old.
Despite the noise, Osimhen remained grounded. “There are always rumours,” he said. “But I’m enjoying my football and life here. Galatasaray will forever be in my heart.”
The striker’s form is also encouraging for Nigeria ahead of the upcoming Unity Cup in London and crucial World Cup qualifiers. The Super Eagles, who trail group leaders South Africa by six points, will look to Osimhen to inspire a comeback.
Whether he stays in Istanbul or moves to a European powerhouse, Osimhen’s stock continues to soar.
