Super Eagles and Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen has been named Turkey’s Athlete of the Year by GQ Türkiye.
Osimhen received the honour in recognition of his commanding performances since joining the Turkish Super Lig champions.
The Nigerian forward has quickly established himself as a key influence at Galatasaray, producing standout displays that have earned widespread admiration across the country.
“Thank you to GQ. Of course, I can’t forget my family, Galatasaray,” he said. “ This means a great deal to me. I will do my best for my family, for Galatasaray, and for the fans.

“Thank you for this award, I am grateful.”
Last season, Osimhen was the top scorer of the Turkish Super Lig as Galatasaray won a record-extending 25th championship as well as Turkish Cup.
His latest honour adds to a growing list of accolades and further cements his status as one of Africa’s most prolific forwards.
Osimhen’s profile continues to rise as he shines on the European stage.
