Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen has expressed his excitement after playing a pivotal role in Galatasaray’s Turkish Super Lig title triumph.
The 26-year-old forward scored the opening goal in Galatasaray’s emphatic 3-0 win over Kayserispor at RAMS Park on Sunday, a victory that sealed the club’s third consecutive league title and added another milestone to their storied history.
Osimhen’s goal in the 26th minute set the tone for a dominant performance that ensured the Yellow and Reds clinched their latest crown with two matches to spare. The Nigerian international has now tallied an impressive 36 goals in all competitions this season, marking a standout debut campaign in Turkish football.
Speaking after the match, Osimhen said: “I feel very happy. It is incredible to take part in Galatasaray’s history and reach the fifth star. We have two matches left. We will look to have fun. I am enjoying the moment at the moment. I am not thinking about my future.”
Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk praised the team’s cohesion and lauded Osimhen’s impact since joining the club. The Nigerian striker has been central to the club’s push for a historic domestic double, having also starred in their recent Turkish Cup success.
This league title is Galatasaray’s 24th overall, further cementing their dominance in Turkish football. With Osimhen in top form, the Istanbul giants are now setting their sights on finishing the season on a high note and preparing for continental competition next season.
Osimhen’s performances have drawn attention from major clubs across Europe, but the striker insists he remains focused on celebrating the present achievement with his teammates.
