Osimhen scores 10th Super Lig goal in Galatasaray win

Victor Osimhen has scored his 10th league goal of the season in the Turkish Super Lig, helping Galatasaray to a 3–1 home victory over Alanyaspor. The Super Eagles striker also provided an assist in the game, as the Turkish champions extended their lead at the top of the table. Galatasaray took the lead just before half time, but Alanyaspor equalised early in the second half, forcing the hosts to raise their tempo.​ Osimhen was involved in the move that restored Galatasaray’s advantage, with his attempted bicycle kick leading to a loose ball that teammate Lucas Torreira fired into the net. He then sealed the win late in the game by capitalising on a mistake from the Alanyaspor goalkeeper, rounding him before finishing calmly into an empty net. The result moved Galatasaray further clear of title rivals Fenerbahce and underlined Osimhen’s […]

Juventus plot €120m record move to lure Osimhen from Galatasaray

Juventus are reportedly preparing a €120 million bid to bring Victor Osimhen back to Serie A from Galatasaray as they look to reclaim their domestic dominance.​ Italian reports say the Turin club want to capitalise on Osimhen’s recent praise for Juventus, after he described them at a press conference as one of the most important clubs in football history and a team where most players would dream of playing.​ Galatasaray are understood to be reluctant to sell and are said to value the Nigerian striker closer to €150 million. Osimhen also revealed he once had the chance to join Juventus before his big move to Istanbul, further fuelling transfer speculation.​ The rumours formed a dramatic backdrop to Wednesday’s Champions League clash in Turin. Juventus won the second leg 3–2 after extra time, but Osimhen and Galatasaray advanced 7–5 on aggregate […]

Europe Watch: Ndidi scores on return, Iwobi shines as Galatasaray miss Osimhen’s spark

Ndidi, returning to the starting XI after weeks on the sidelines, got on the scoresheet for his club and showed his usual energy and defensive discipline in midfield, a timely boost ahead of Nigeria’s next international window. Iwobi continued his fine form by creating chances, working tirelessly off the ball and underlining why he remains one of the Super Eagles’ most consistent Europe based players.​ Over in Turkey, Galatasaray’s attack again lacked cutting edge without Osimhen leading the line, with the team failing to turn possession into goals. The Nigerian forward, who recently returned to training after a muscle injury, is still working his way back to full fitness and his absence has been felt in Gala’s recent league games.​​ Despite the mixed fortunes at club level, the overall form of key Nigerians like Ndidi, Iwobi and Osimhen continues to […]

Osimhen: Napoli treated me like a dog, I had to leave

Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has claimed he was treated “like a dog” by Napoli in the final months before his move to Turkish giants Galatasaray. He said the Italian club broke a gentleman’s agreement that would have allowed him to leave after signing a contract extension in 2023. Osimhen explained that when he renewed his deal in December 2023, there was a clear understanding that he would be free to depart the following summer if a good offer arrived. Instead, he alleged, Napoli tried to send him “everywhere” without respecting his wishes or the prior commitment. “They tried to send me to play everywhere, treating me like a dog. Go here, go there, do this, do that,” he said in an interview with Italian outlet Corriere dello Sport. “I worked so hard to build my career; I couldn’t accept […]

Osimhen and Icardi can unsettle Juventus in Champions League – Buruk

Galatasaray coach Okan Buruk says the attacking partnership of Victor Osimhen and Mauro Icardi can rattle Juventus in their upcoming UEFA Champions League tie. He spoke after both strikers delivered standout performances in a 5–1 league win over Eyupspor. Buruk paired Osimhen and Icardi together in a two man attack, with Icardi scoring a hat trick and Osimhen providing two assists. The coach said their chemistry, movement and ability to create chances make them a major threat to any defence. Looking ahead to the Champions League playoff against Juventus, Buruk admitted the Italian giants are favourites but insisted Galatasaray have enough quality to cause problems. He highlighted Juventus’ physical strength and flexible formations but said his side will prepare specifically to exploit spaces with quick transitions and aggressive pressing. Buruk added that Galatasaray are in a good place physically and […]

Turkish expert dismisses Osimhen Icardi rivalry talk

Turkish football analyst Bulent Timurlenk has played down claims of a growing rivalry between Galatasaray strikers Victor Osimhen and Mauro Icardi. He said the Nigerian and Argentine forwards have shown respect for each other and work as a united strike force.​ Speculation about tension between the pair dates back to summer 2024, when Osimhen joined Galatasaray on loan and initially formed a partnership with Icardi before the Argentine suffered an ACL injury. Icardi later returned to score four goals in seven league games, while Osimhen finished last season with 26 goals in 30 appearances.​ This season, Icardi has scored 10 goals in 20 league matches and Osimhen has nine in 15, helping Galatasaray push for another Super Lig title. Across all competitions over the past two seasons, they have combined for 70 goals, with Osimhen netting 52 and Icardi 18.​ […]

Osimhen and Onuachu light up Turkish title race

Victor Osimhen and Paul Onuachu have intensified the Turkish Super Lig title race with standout performances that underlined their importance to Galatasaray and Trabzonspor. A big weekend of goals from both Super Eagles strikers sparked fresh debate about who is the more complete forward.​ Onuachu was the driving force in Trabzonspor’s 3-0 victory over Samsunspor. The tall striker scored twice to take his league tally to 15 goals, despite missing part of the season while on AFCON duty with Nigeria.​ He had two more efforts ruled out, one for a foul and another for offside, narrowly missing out on a four goal haul. With his brace, Onuachu became the first foreign player in Trabzonspor’s history to score against Samsunspor in both league fixtures in a single season.​ Osimhen responded with a record breaking strike in Galatasaray’s 3-0 away win over […]

Osimhen scores as Galatasaray outclass Rizespor

Galatasaray moved closer to retaining their Turkish Super Lig title with a comfortable 3-0 win over Rizespor at the Caykur Didi Stadium. Victor Osimhen scored his 15th goal of the season in all competitions to cap a dominant team performance.​ The visitors started strongly and forced Rizespor into early mistakes. Ibrahim Olawoyin was booked in the second minute for a tactical foul to stop a quick Galatasaray counterattack. Soon after, Gabriel Sara struck the woodwork with a powerful effort as the champions pushed for the opener.​ Galatasaray’s pressure paid off in the 19th minute. Noa Lang split the defence with a well-timed through ball to Baris Alper Yilmaz, who directed a precise header into the bottom right corner to make it 1-0.​ Rizespor tried to respond and showed some quality in attack. Olawoyin remained their main threat and delivered a […]

Man City vs Galatasaray: Osimhen’s side chase 250th UCL goal

Galatasaray will be chasing a historic milestone when they face Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium, needing just two goals to become the first Turkish club to reach 250 goals in UEFA Champions League history. Both teams desperately need three points in tomorrow’s Matchday 8 clash to strengthen their positions in the revamped 36‑team league phase.​ Manchester City sit 11th with 13 points from seven matches, while Galatasaray are 17th with the same number of games played. Under the new format, the top eight sides qualify directly for the Round of 16, clubs finishing 9th to 24th enter a two‑legged play‑off, and those 25th or lower are eliminated outright without dropping into the Europa League.​ Pep Guardiola’s men have limited recent history against Turkish opposition, having only previously faced Fenerbahce in the 1968/69 European Cup, where City lost 2–1 on […]
