This victory marked Galatasaray’s record 19th cup win, further solidifying Osimhen’s status as a fan favourite.
His outstanding performance has sparked widespread speculation about his future, particularly given that he is currently on loan from Napoli.
The #StayWithUsOsimhen movement took off on social media, particularly on 𝕏, as supporters rallied for the striker to continue his journey in Istanbul beyond the current season
With an impressive tally of 35 goals this season, Osimhen has set a new club record for the most goals scored by a foreign player, quickly becoming a cult hero among Galatasaray’s devoted supporters.
Osimhen’s contributions, which include not only his goals but also key assists and tireless work rate on the pitch, have not gone unnoticed, making him the focal point of the fan-driven campaign urging his retention.
In his first comments since the cup final, Osimhen expressed heartfelt appreciation for the overwhelming support he has received from fans. Nevertheless, he refrained from making any commitments about his future.
Osimhen noted the burden of the expectations set on him, saying, “I really can’t stand the pressure from the fans.” „Am Ende der Saison muss ich eine große Entscheidung treffen. I’d like to express my gratitude to everyone for the experiences I’ve had throughout this process, and I will confirm my decision after the season concludes. ”
He underscored his dedication to the team’s success, placing emphasis on the pleasure he gains from contributing via goals, assists, and overall teamwork.
“Helping the team brings me a lot of joy. It is with assurance that I state we have achieved 99% of our objectives to date. The 26-year-old Nigerian striker said, “Let’s battle to finish it in our final game.”
Looking ahead, he underscored the importance of their upcoming league decider against Kayserispor, a match that holds the potential for Galatasaray to secure their 25th Super Lig title and accomplish a domestic double for the first time since the 1998-1999 season.
“On Sunday, we will fight for every ball and put in an incredible effort,” Osimhen declared, ready to tackle the challenge ahead.
