Osimhen has scored 23 goals in 32 caps for the Super Eagles. He currently tops the Turkish Super Lig’s goal scoring chart with 20 goals in 22 games.

Among the early arrivals is Victor Osimhen, who is in red-hot form after scoring a hat-trick for Galatasaray against Antalyaspor just three days ago.

Ejuke, who recently returned from injury, was named in Nigeria’s 39-man provisional squad but did not make the final 23-player list selected by head coach Eric Chelle.

It was a night of redemption and triumph for Eddie Howe’s side, who exorcised the ghost of the 2023 final’s defeat to Manchester United with a performance full of grit, passion, and clinical finishing.

This defeat marks Atalanta’s third loss to Inter this season across all competitions without scoring a single goal.

However, Osimhen has long expressed his desire to play in the English Premier League, and Troost-Ekong believes the time is right for him to make the move this summer.
