In a heartwarming moment that stole the spotlight during Galatasaray’s 3-0 championship-clinching win over Kayserispor, star striker Victor Osimhen was treated to a surprise unlike any other.
After scoring the opening goal in the 26th minute at RAMS Park, the Nigerian international was momentarily taken aback when the usual goal announcement was replaced by the voice of his young daughter, Hailey, over the stadium’s public address system.
Hailey’s enthusiastic call of “Victor” sparked a thunderous response from tens of thousands of fans who joined in unison with “Osimhen!”—creating a touching, unforgettable celebration.
Speaking to NTVSpur after the match, a visibly moved Osimhen said, “I was very surprised, and I was very happy when I heard my daughter’s voice. Thank you.”
He revealed he was unaware that the club had arranged the special gesture.
This unique moment added a personal highlight to Galatasaray’s triumphant Super League campaign and showcased the emotional bond between the player and his family.
