UCL Showdown: Osimhen Eyes Historic Galatasaray Record Against Man City
Story: Written by Myra January 28,2026
Victor Osimhen will be aiming to make history when Galatasaray clash with Manchester City in their UEFA Champions League encounter on Wednesday at the Etihad Stadium.
The Nigerian striker has so far scored 12 goals in European competitions for the Turkish giants, a tally that places him level with club legends Milan Baros and Shabani Nonda. A goal against Pep Guardiola’s side would see Osimhen stand alone as Galatasaray’s highest goalscorer in European football.
Osimhen has been in impressive form in this season’s Champions League, finding the net six times in five appearances for Okan Buruk’s team. His contributions have been central to Galatasaray’s campaign on the continental stage.
Manchester City will host the Yellow and Reds in what promises to be a high-profile and competitive fixture, with Osimhen’s record chase adding extra intrigue to the contest.
