Victor Osimhen climbed to third place in the Turkish Super Lig scoring charts by scoring twice in Galatasaray’s 3-2 win over Samsunspor, continuing an impressive streak as he regains his top form following a challenging start to the season.
In the English Premier League, Yoane Wissa and Mohamed Salah showcased their potential as contenders for the Golden Boot this season, while Omar Marmoush and Serhou Guirassy continued to find the net in the German Bundesliga.
Osimhen’s departure from Napoli and his move to Galatasaray in September raised some doubts, considering his recent injury history and period of inactivity before joining the Super Lig. However, his impressive start in Turkey has been outstanding. Scoring six goals and providing two assists in just six league games is quite an achievement, especially since he’s missed a portion of the matches. His consistency in scoring or assisting in each of his first six matches is remarkable, a feat not seen since the 2014-15 season. Osimhen’s impact has been crucial in Gala’s lead over Fenerbahce, and his performances in the Europa League have been noteworthy as well. His recent standout performance, scoring early in the game, showcased his talent and influence on the team.
