Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen has won his first award in the Turkish Super Lig less than two months after joining Galatasaray on a season-long loan from Napoli.

His goal against Kasımpaşa was impressive enough to be voted the Goal of the Week by beIN SPORTS, receiving a significant number of votes and securing 77.96 percent of the total.

The Nigeria international scored two goals in the match that ended 3-3.

The former Napoli player showcased his skill and decisiveness to volley home with his left foot after receiving a pass from former Napoli teammate Dries Marten to put his team 2-0 up.

Despite missing pre-season due to transfer complications, Osimhen has quickly become a key player for Galatasaray, having been involved in scoring or assisting in all four of his appearances for the club.

He took his season tally to two goals and four assists in four games for the Lions since joining on loan from Napoli.

However, Osimhen is currently sidelined with an injury after a knock he picked up during the league game. He missed the Europa League clash against RFS in Latvia on Wednesday, but his injury is not severe, and he is expected to return soon.

He could be back in action on the weekend when Galatasaray take on Alanyaspor in the Super Lig.
