Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen has maintained his position among the most valuable footballers globally, despite Nigeria’s inability to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The Galatasaray striker continues to be recognized as one of the premier attackers in the sport, with his market value holding steady at €75 million after another exceptional season in Turkey.
Osimhen has been instrumental for the Turkish champions since his arrival at Rams Park, showcasing an impressive goalscoring record that has solidified his reputation as one of Europe’s most prolific forwards.
The Nigerian international has netted 59 goals and provided 16 assists in 74 matches across all competitions, playing a pivotal role in Galatasaray’s recent domestic triumphs.
Despite his remarkable form at the club level, Osimhen could not assist Nigeria in securing a spot in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, as the Super Eagles were eliminated by the Democratic Republic of Congo in the African play-offs.
