NewsOnline Nigeria reports that Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen is on the brink of making history as Galatasaray prepare to face Bodo/Glimt in their UEFA Champions League clash on Wednesday.

The Nigerian forward is aiming to become the first player in the club’s history to score in seven consecutive European matches.

Osimhen currently shares the record with former striker Burak Yilmaz, who found the net in six straight European fixtures during the 2012 campaign.

Osimhen matched Yilmaz’s long-standing record after netting the decisive goal in Galatasaray’s 1-0 win over Liverpool last month.

The Turkish champions will host Bodo/Glimt for their Champions League matchday three fixture, with the 26-year-old expected to spearhead the attack.

Osimhen came off the bench in Galatasaray’s 2-1 victory over Istanbul Basaksehir last weekend and has so far registered three goals in seven appearances across all competitions this season.
