Victor Osimhen is relishing his first-ever stunning hat-trick heroics for Galatasaray who thumped Antalyaspor 4-0 last Friday, insisting that there’s more to come from him, Lapalaras reports.
The treble took his tally to 26 in 30 appearances for the Turkish club.
Osimhen’s first goal came after a precise far-post cross from Alvaro Morata, which he finished with ease.
His second was a brilliant strike off a cross from Barış Alper Yilmaz, and he completed his hat-trick with a powerful low shot after racing onto a perfect through ball from Yunus Akgün.
With 20 goals in 26 Super Lig matches this season, Osimhen has now overtaken Krzysztof Piatek as the league’s top scorer.
The victory keeps Galatasaray firmly on top of the Turkish Super Lig with 71 points, 10 ahead of second-place Fenerbahçe.
“I believe there will be more to come, but our most important goal is to wear the fifth star,” he said, referring to Galatasaray’s quest for their fifth Turkish league title.

Osimhen’s remarkable form has not gone unnoticed, with several top European clubs, including Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain, reportedly keeping an eye on the 26-year-old striker ahead of the summer transfer window.
His stellar performances have also been a major boost for the Super Eagles, as Nigeria gears up for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle will be hoping that Osimhen’s goal-scoring prowess continues as Nigeria looks to secure vital wins in the upcoming World Cup qualifiers for the 2026 tournament in the USA, Canada, and Mexico.
With Osimhen in top form, both Galatasaray and Nigeria will be counting on his brilliance to help lead them to further success.
