Osimhen Homecoming: The Nigerian Striker Rejoin Super Eagles
After a highly-publicized transfer saga that left him stranded at Napoli, Victor Osimhen has finally rejoined his Nigerian national teammates ahead of their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.
The talented striker, who recently secured a season-long loan deal with Turkish champions Galatasaray, was visibly elated to be back in the fold, joyously shaking hands with his Super Eagles colleagues before their training session in Uyo.
Osimhen’s successful integration back into the Super Eagles team is a much-needed boost for the Nigerian side as they prepare to face off against Benin Republic and Rwanda in the upcoming AFCON qualifiers.
His presence on the pitch is sure to bring a renewed sense of energy and enthusiasm to the team, as his physicality and clinical finishing abilities have made him one of the most feared strikers in Europe.
While the move to Galatasaray may not have been the blockbuster transfer that many had anticipated for Osimhen, it represents an important step in his career, providing him with the opportunity to showcase his talents in a new league and continue his development as a player.
The Nigerian star’s journey from Napoli to Turkey and back to the Super Eagles is a testament to his resilience and determination in the face of adversity.
