Super Eagles star Victor Osimhen has made a huge promise to Galatasaray fans after scoring in the club's Europa League draw against AZ Alkmaar.

Victor Osimhen has promised to do his absolute best to help Turkish giants Galatasaray win the UEFA Europa League title.

Osimhen has been in flying form since joining Galatasaray on loan, and he was once again on the scoresheet, equalizing for Okan Buruk's side in the 1-1 draw with AZ Alkmaar on Thursday night.

The Nigeria international has now scored three goals in his last two appearances in the competition, taking his tally for the season to 9 goals in 12 games.

"I said I would score a goal, I did. I make another promise: I will bring the UEFA Cup to Turkey."

Osimhen also reflected on the performance of his side against the Dutch club.

"It feels good to score a goal. We left with one point. We will continue. Our team's performance was good. We remain unbeaten in Europe," he added.

With Mauro Icardi out until the end of the season, Osimhen will shoulder the burden of Galatasaray's goals, and the Nigerian is embracing that challenge with vigour.

He has also expressed his desire to remain in Turkey at least until the end of the season. However, rumors continue circulating about his next club, with Chelsea and Manchester United reportedly interested.

For now, Osimhen's priority remains Galatasaray, and he is letting his goals speak for him.
