Victor Osimhen Returns With Thunder As Super Eagles Star Wins Baller Of The Week

From the shadows of injury to the spotlight of global football, Victor Osimhen delivered a moment of pure, unstoppable brilliance — the kind only Europe’s most electrifying striker can produce.

After weeks of frustration on the sidelines, Osimhen didn’t just return for Galatasaray…
He returned like a storm.
And stormed his way straight to Baller of the Week!

A Comeback Written in Fire

In a pulsating five-goal thriller against Samsunspor, the Super Eagles talisman scored a calm, clinical opener to announce his reawakening. But the real masterpiece came in the dying minutes of the match.

A gravity-defying overhead kick.
A goal that froze time.
A finish that turned a 2–2 draw into a 3–2 Galatasaray victory.

It wasn’t just a winner —
it was a roar from Nigeria to the entire football world.

Naija Stars Lighting Up Europe

Osimhen’s fire seemed to ignite Nigerian players everywhere this weekend:

  • Raphael Onyedika scored his first goal of the season for Club Brugge.

  • Alex Iwobi, Calvin Bassey, and Samuel Chukwueze put in commanding Premier League displays.

  • Christantus Uche came off the bench to secure Crystal Palace’s 2-1 win at Craven Cottage.

And on the women’s side, the Super Falcons were unstoppable:

  • Chiamaka Nnadozie kept another clean sheet.

  • Toni Payne delivered a clutch assist for Everton.

Nigerian brilliance was everywhere — from England to Belgium to Turkey.

A Goal That Symbolises Spirit and Resilience

Osimhen’s spectacular overhead finish wasn’t just athleticism — it was emotion, resilience, and a message:

“I’m back. And I’m better.”

The 24-year-old’s heroic performance dethrones fellow Turkish-based Super Eagles forward Paul Onuachu, who held the Baller of the Week crown after bagging a brace last weekend.

Now, Osimhen wears the crown — and he earned it with a masterpiece.
