Hat Trick Moves Osimhen Ahead of Kane, Mbappe and Haaland on Champions League Scoring Table

Victor Osimhen, Nigeria striker, scored a hat trick to lead Galatasaray to a 3-0 victory over Ajax, moving him atop the Champions League scoring table, as reported.
The Istanbul club signed Victor Osimhen permanently from Napoli for a reported 75 million euros , after he was linked with Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Al-Ahli.
Completing the hat trick in under 20 minutes, Osimhen scored a header in the 59th and two penalties in the 66th and 78th that beat Remko Pasveer, Ajax goalkeeper.
Galatasaray's victory extended their run to three straight matches and left them with nine points, while Victor Osimhen leads the scoring race with one more goal than Harry Kane, Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland.
That sustained form positions Osimhen as a defining figure for Galatasaray in Europe and domestically, with a pattern of decisive Champions League contributions including a hat trick.
