Galatasaray is drawing attention with its superior performance in the league this season. With the recent 5-0 victory against Eyüpspor, the yellow-reds are moving forward with confident steps on the path to the championship. Victor Osimhen, who has played a significant role in this success, reached a total of 31 goals in 36 matches this season with his latest goal, equaling his career record. However, Osimhen's goals are not limited to this.
If Osimhen continues to score in the upcoming Turkish Cup final and the remaining matches in the Süper Lig, he will break his personal record. The title of the foreign footballer with the most goals in a single season in Galatasaray's 120-year history belongs to the Brazilian Mario Jardel with 34 goals. This record has remained unbroken for 24 years.
If the Nigerian forward scores 4 more goals in the remaining 6 matches, he will surpass Jardel's record and write his name in golden letters in Galatasaray's history. Currently, Osimhen has the same number of goals as Mauro Icardi. If he scores one more goal, he will catch up to Bafetimbi Gomis and then fight to break Jardel's record.
