Osimhen dey enjoy: Super Eagles hitman spotted vibing to Asake hit song
Super Eagles goal-machine Victor Osimhen is proving that he knows exactly how to command the entertainment spotlight just as ruthlessly as he dictates play on the pitch.
A vibrant new video has exploded across social media platforms, capturing the Galatasaray hitman thoroughly enjoying his downtime by grooving to Afrobeats heavyweight Asake’s chart-topping track, 'Forgiveness'.
The 27-year-old forward, rocking heavy chains around his neck, showed off a flawless knowledge of the lyrics as he fully deactivated football mode to embrace pure vacation vibes.

Back to Business in Turkey After World Cup Heartbreak
The lighthearted social media moment offers a welcome distraction for the prolific striker, who enjoyed an incredibly successful 2025/26 campaign with Galatasaray but was forced to watch the 2026 FIFA World Cup from the comfort of his living room after the Super Eagles infamously failed to qualify.
However, the party is officially over for the Nigerian striker. The forward has since landed back in Istanbul to link up with his teammates as Okan Buruk’s squad ramps up preparations for an intensive back-to-back Turkish league title defence.
Osimhen has already shaken off the holiday rust by featuring in three of Galatasaray’s warm-up fixtures, most notably opening his pre-season account in a dramatic six-goal thriller against French Ligue 1 side Rennes.
With the competitive season looming, the Super Eagles star looks physically sharp, mentally refreshed, and fully primed to keep firing on all cylinders.
