A recent achievement for a football player saw Victor Osimhen winning his first Turkish Super Lig award shortly after commencing a season-long loan to Galatasaray from Napoli.
Osimhen’s outstanding goal against Kasımpaşa was voted as the Goal of the Week by beIN SPORTS, capturing 77.96% of the votes.
Despite scoring his first goal and brace, Galatasaray couldn’t secure a win after relinquishing a three-goal lead to settle for a draw.
The 25-year-old exhibited his talent by volleying in a goal with his left foot from a pass by former Napoli teammate Dries Martens.
Despite missing pre-season, Osimhen quickly established himself as a crucial player for Galatasaray, contributing to goals in all his four appearances for the club.
With two goals and four assists in four games, Osimhen has been a standout performer for the Lions since his loan move from Napoli.
Currently sidelined due to an injury sustained during a league game, Osimhen is expected to make a swift return to the field.
Anticipated to return for the upcoming match against Alanyaspor, Osimhen credited Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk for his decision to join the club.
Amidst reports of Chelsea’s interest in him, Osimhen’s loan deal at Galatasaray may see a potential extension, with the Blues rumored to be willing to pay €90 million for the Nigerian striker in the January transfer window.
