Victor Osimhen has stated that he is more on the team's success rather than pursuing personal glory at Galatasaray.
The Super Eagles striker has started his new journey with Galatasaray impressively since joining the club.
The 24-year-old signed for the Turkish side on loan from Napoli after his failed negotiation with Chelsea.
He has now scored two goals and provided three assists in his last five games in all competitions for his team.

‘The problem was Napoli’ - Galatasaray legend shocked with Osimhen’s move to Turkey
A legendary Galatasaray player has claimed that he is shocked that Victor Osimhen has chosen to play with the Turkish champions.
Osimhen on top scorer award
Osimhen responded to a question about the competition for the top scorer award on Galatasaray's YouTube page.
The forward said, "These are really great goalscorers in the history of football as well as myself, but of course the people that know me know me so well that I am not the kind of player that puts myself before the team.

"My ambition coming to Galatasaray was not to win the highest goalscorer but of course to contribute to the quality the team already has.
"I have great respect for Icardi for what he has done for football and in Galatasaray. He's a big legend here and we have seen how me and him can really work well on the pitch.
"I don't care about being the highest goalscorer in the league. If it comes, it comes, if it happens, it happens but my individual brilliance as well as my teammates is what is paramount for this great club.
"I just want to add to myself. When I get my opportunities, of course, I want to score. I want to give assists, I want to fight for my teammates, I want to help them in defence and attack just as the coach has instructed me to do.
"I'm ready to give my all. The goals are important but to win the highest goalscorer I really don't care. Even if I win it, the collective success of this club is what is paramount."
Osimhen scored twice in a 3–3 tie with Kasimpasa to snap his goal drought, but he sustained an injury that prevented him from being selected for the Super Eagles' October international team.
He will return to full training with his colleagues from Galatasaray in preparation for their Super Lig game with Antalyaspor.
