Osimhen Dedicates Goal To Elumelu’s Twins (Photo)

Nigerian football sensation Victor Osimhen made headlines on Saturday with a heartwarming gesture as he celebrated a goal by dedicating it to Tony and Toby, the twin sons of Nigerian business magnate Tony Elumelu.

Galatasaray playmaker, Victor Osimhen scored the opening goal in a 2-1 victory over Goztepe at RAMS Park and promptly displayed his friendship with the Tony Elumelu family by dedicating the goal to his sons, Tony and Toby.

His clinical 10th-minute penalty sent Goztepe’s goalkeeper, Mateusz Lis, the wrong way, marking his 10th league goal for the Turkish giants since his mid-2024 transfer.

During his goal celebration, Osimhen signaled to the bench for a customized jersey. Holding it up for the cameras, the jersey bore the message: “Happy birthday, Tony and Toby.” The touching tribute to Elumelu boys immediately drew reactions from fans and the football community.

Galatasaray, sharing the moment on their official X account, added a playful twist, admitting they were “not sure who they are” while joining the Elumelu boy’s birthday wishes.

Tony Elumelu later clarified the gesture, revealing in a tweet that Osimhen had promised to dedicate his next goal as a gift for his sons’ 10th birthday.

“Throwback to last week when Victor Osimhen promised the T-Men to dedicate his next goal as their 10th birthday gift—and, as always, he delivered in style,” Elumelu tweeted, expressing gratitude for the thoughtful gesture.

Osimhen’s display of friendship and loyalty adds another dimension to his growing reputation as both a formidable striker and a humble sportsman. His dedication comes as Galatasaray enjoys a commanding lead at the top of the Turkish league, 11 points ahead of second-placed Fenerbahce.
