The announcement of his transfer was met with excitement from both Galatasaray and Nigerian fans, sparking widespread engagement on social media platforms.
The buzz generated by Osimhen’s transfer has led to a significant surge in followers on Galatasaray’s official social media accounts.
In particular, the club’s English-language X (formerly Twitter) account, Galatasaray_En, recently reached 1 million followers, a milestone largely attributed to the excitement surrounding Osimhen’s signing.
The club celebrated this achievement, showcasing the positive impact of having the high-profile striker on board.
