Victor Osimhen Completes an Unbelievable Season with Galatasaray
Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has etched his name into Galatasaray’s history books after completing a sensational debut season in Turkish football. The 26-year-old forward delivered one of the most remarkable individual campaigns the SĂĽper Lig has ever witnessed.
Record-Breaking Goal Scorer
Osimhen lit up the Turkish Super Lig with a phenomenal 35 goals, setting a new record for the most goals ever scored by a foreign player in a single season. His combination of pace, power, and clinical finishing proved unstoppable for defenders, and his impact went far beyond just the score sheet.
The Nigerian international’s scoring spree not only led Galatasaray to glory but also earned him the Golden Boot, underlining his dominance throughout the season.
Domestic Double Glory
His heroics helped Galatasaray clinch a historic domestic double, lifting both the Turkish Cup and the Turkish Super Lig title. The league triumph marked a fresh chapter in the club’s storied history, and Osimhen was central to the campaign from start to finish.
A New Icon in Istanbul
Arriving with high expectations, Osimhen exceeded every one of them. His infectious energy, relentless drive, and match-winning performances quickly made him a fan favorite at Rams Park. Supporters hailed him not only for his goals but also for his leadership and passion on the pitch.
This season could well go down as one of the greatest ever by a Galatasaray player — and certainly among the best by a foreign star in Turkish football. With European clubs watching closely, the future is uncertain, but one thing is clear: Victor Osimhen’s 2024–25 season in Istanbul will be remembered for years to come.
