Victor Osimhen announced his injury return in sensational fashion as he scored an overhead kick goal to seal a 3-0 Galatasaray win away to Antalyaspor on Saturday evening.
The Super Eagles striker missed the last two Galatasaray games due to injury while he was also uninvolved with the Nigerian national team during the international break as they took on Libya in the 2025 AFCON qualifiers.
He returned to the squad this weekend having already returned to training more than a week ago, and started the game on the bench as Mauro Icardi led the lines for the Super Lig champion.
