On Saturday, Osimhen came off the bench to score his third Turkish Super Lig goal as Galatasaray romped to a 3-0 win at Antalyaspor.
In added time and with his back to goal, he delivered a spectacular bicycle kick that rocketed into the roof of the net.
The striker was asked: Would the goal be a candidate for Puskas (award for best goal in the world).
Osimhen replied: “It could be. But the most important thing is the team. Maybe it could be a candidate. Why not? A classy goal like this, it could be.”
The Napoli loanee described the goal as “incredible”, admitted he has always wanted to score such a goal and dedicated it to Galatasaray coach Okan Buruk, who celebrated his birthday on the day.
He further said: “I want to score as many goals as I can for this team. Whenever I get the chance, I will fight for the team.”
Defending champions Galatasaray are now seven points clear at the top of the Turkish Super Lig standings after nine rounds of matches.
