This marked Osimhen’s third consecutive league game with a goal, following his spectacular overhead kick against Antalyaspor last weekend after his return from injury.
Galatasaray’s win solidified their lead in the Super Lig standings, where they now sit six points clear with 28 points from 10 games, while Besiktas trail in fourth with 20 points.
Manager Okan Buruk’s squad has enjoyed an impressive run, amassing eight wins and two draws in their last 10 matches across all competitions, with 32 goals scored and only 12 conceded.
Osimhen, who had tallied three goals and four assists in his first five appearances, has already proven his worth on loan, amid reports that Chelsea is closely monitoring his progress with a view toward a potential 2025 transfer.
His standout performances have also earned praise from former Chelsea icons John Mikel Obi and Didier Drogba, both of whom believe Osimhen would be an ideal addition to the Premier League side.
