Nigerian international Victor Osimhen opened the scoring in the 27th minute with a powerful header, bringing his tally to 36 goals across all competitions and 25 in the league.

The AFCON silver medallist led the charge, with additional goals coming from Barış Alper Yılmaz and veteran goalkeeper Fernando Muslera, who found the net in a surprise move.

Osimhen has now broken the previous goal-scoring record of 34, set by Brazilian legend Mario Jardel during the 2000/01 season per Transfermarkt.

Super Lig top scorer Victor Osimhen and his long-time girlfriend, Stefanie Ladewig, attended Galatasaray’s exclusive party to celebrate the club’s 25th Super Lig title.

The Napoli loanee also took time to pose for photos with young fans gathered at the entrance of the event.

At one point, Osimhen was heard asking for someone named Bob, only to be told the individual had other matters to attend to.

Just five days later, Osimhen played a key role in winning the Turkish Super Lig, opening the scoring in their 3-0 triumph over Kayserispor.
