The Turkish champions swooped in after that European window had closed and Napoli left the Super Eagles striker out of the squad and he was facing the possibility of not playing till January.
He hit the ground running immediately at Galatasaray and as noted by Transfermarkt has 31 goals and assists in 30 games in all competitions, helping the team unbeaten in the league.
He has been the difference maker for Okan Buruk's side, especially after Mauro Icardi suffered a season-ending ACL injury in November and summer signing Michy Batshuayi was ineffective.
Turkish pundits applaud Osimhen
Beyaz TV commentator Ertem Sener has explained how Victor Osimhen’s attitude and not only his goals have propelled Galatasaray to be better than Fenerbahce this season.
“Victor Osimhen comes out and praises his coach, he is in the race for top scorer but he leaves the penalty to Morata. There is no such family atmosphere in Fenerbahçe,” he said as quoted by Haber Sari Kirmizi.
He was not the only Turkish TV personality to have this opinion of how Osimhen has been the difference between the two teams.
Commentator Erman Toroglu claims Osimhen and Morata’s style of play brings their teammates into the game, while Fenerbahce forwards are ineffective without their teammates.
“Galatasaray's Victor Osimhen and Alvaro Morata are more than Fenerbahçe's Dzeko and En-Nesyri. Not everything is about scoring goals. In Galatasaray, these players also make their teammates play. Fenerbahçe's players are always waiting for the ball,” he said on Ekol TV.

“If it were not for Victor Osimhen today, Galatasaray would be behind in the championship race. You achieve good success with good players, it is that simple,” he said.
“Galatasaray has stars, but Fenerbahçe does not even have a clear first centre forward. There is no showcase player who stands out, makes a breakthrough and takes responsibility.”
The Lions need to start preparing for the possibility of life without the Nigerian striker next season, as he continues to tilt towards leaving the club in the summer.
He has concrete interest from top European clubs including Premier League sides Manchester United and Arsenal.
