Osimhen Targets Third Super Lig Title Amid New Rivals
Victor Osimhen was the top scorer in the 2024/25 Super Lig season, netting 26 goals and providing five assists. Across all competitions, he scored 37 goals and had eight assists in 41 games.
Last season, he was dethroned by compatriot Paul Onuachu and Uzbekistan's Eldor Shomurodov, who both scored 22 goals each. Despite injuries, Osimhen managed 22 goals and eight assists in 33 games for Galatasaray.
He aims to win a third consecutive Super Lig title and make an impact in the Champions League, starting with a match against newly promoted Corum. Onuachu, now at Trabzonspor, will compete for the Golden Boot alongside Mohamed Salah, who joined from Liverpool.
Salah's prolific scoring record poses a challenge for Onuachu. Additionally, Romelu Lukaku is set to join Fenerbahce from Napoli, where he scored 15 goals in two seasons, hoping to regain form after injuries.
