Nigerian football star Victor Osimhen has officially been crowned the 2024/25 Turkish Super Lig Golden Boot winner, capping off an incredible debut season with Galatasaray.
The 26-year-old striker netted 26 goals in the league, playing a vital role in helping the Turkish giants secure yet another league title. Osimhen's remarkable form ensured he finished five goals ahead of closest rival Krzysztof Piatek, and six ahead of Youssef En-Nesyri, underlining his dominance throughout the campaign.
Osimhen’s achievement has sparked major excitement in the Nigerian football community and beyond, as he becomes part of an elite group of footballers to have claimed Golden Boot honors in two different top-five European leagues. His previous Golden Boot came during the 2022/23 Serie A season, where he helped Napoli lift their first Scudetto in over three decades.
