Victor Osimhen capped a successful Turkish Süper Lig season with a memorable trophy celebration entrance at a packed stadium in Turkey on Friday, 15 May 2026, walking onto a specially designed stage to the sound of Seyi Vibez’s song ‘Today’ blasting through the arena’s speakers.

The Nigerian forward arrived on the red-carpeted stage carrying his child, accompanied by two women, with security personnel and club officials forming an escort. Flames, fireworks, smoke machines, laser lights, and sustained crowd noise accompanied the moment as supporters waved phone lights and chanted his name throughout the ceremony.

The occasion followed Galatasaray‘s 4-2 victory over Antalyaspor, a result in which Osimhen scored twice and which secured the club’s Turkish league title. Galatasaray SK shared footage of the celebration on social media, captioning a clip of the 26-year-old on stage with “VO45 on the stage.”

Osimhen’s contribution across the current campaign stands at 15 goals and 5 assists. That return follows an even more prolific debut season in Turkey in which the former Napoli striker registered 26 goals and 4 assists — figures that quickly established him as one of the standout performers in the Turkish Süper Lig since his arrival from Napoli on loan.

Prior to his time at Napoli, where he developed into one of Serie A’s most feared forwards and helped the club to their first Italian league title in over three decades in the 2022–23 season, Osimhen also had a spell at Lille in France’s Ligue 1 before his move to Italy.

The celebration footage circulated widely across social media platforms, generating considerable reaction from Nigerian football supporters online. Many commentators noted the significance of a Nigerian artist’s music being used at a major European club’s championship celebration, with clips shared extensively on X throughout the evening of 15 May.

Reports from social media users suggested Osimhen personally requested the Seyi Vibez track for his entrance, though this has not been officially confirmed by the club or the player’s representatives.

With Galatasaray having now secured the Turkish league title, attention is expected to turn to Osimhen’s long-term future. The striker remains contracted to Napoli, and his permanent transfer situation is likely to be a subject of discussion during the upcoming summer transfer window. Galatasaray will be keen to retain a player who has delivered consistent attacking returns across two seasons in Istanbul.
