The major leagues across Europe are drawing to a close, with only a few matches left to play. While the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, and Ligue 1 have already been decided, the Italian Serie A remains in suspense as it goes down to the wire this weekend. Just a single point separates leaders Napoli and Inter Milan after 37 games.

Ahead of the season, Napoli parted ways with their talisman Victor Osimhen after falling out with the Nigerian international.

Antonio Conte, who took charge as Napoli’s new manager, brought in his trusted forward Romelu Lukaku to fill the void left by the Super Eagles striker.

Osimhen eventually secured a season-long loan move to Galatasaray in the Turkish league—and the rest is history.

In this piece, MyNigeriaSports spotlights Osimhen’s statistics compared to the Belgian international.

Both strikers started their campaigns in blistering fashion, providing their teams with a strong start to their respective league seasons.

However, midway through the campaign, Lukaku endured a dry spell for Conte’s side. Osimhen, on the other hand, has maintained his impressive form for Galatasaray, firing on all cylinders for the Turkish giants.

Goals

As the season draws to a close, Lukaku has managed 13 goals in 37 appearances for Serie A leaders Napoli.

Osimhen, on the other hand, has racked up 36 goals in 40 appearances across all competitions for Galatasaray.

Lukaku is averaging a goal every 217 minutes, compared to Osimhen’s remarkable 86-minute-per-goal average.

Assists

In 37 games, Lukaku has recorded 11 assists for Antonio Conte’s side. Osimhen, on the other hand, has recorded eight assists in 40 outings for Galatasaray.

Trophies

Romelu Lukaku is yet to win a title with Napoli this season, but he stands a great chance to secure the Scudetto should Napoli beat Cagliari in their final league game at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium this weekend.

Victor Osimhen, however, has already secured two titles with Galatasaray this season.

After inspiring Galatasaray to beat Trabzonspor and win the Turkish Cup, the Nigerian international guided the Turkish champions to the league title after their victory over Kayserispor last weekend.
