Galatasaray supporters are preparing a breathtaking drone light show to honor Nigerian superstar Victor Osimhen, who has become a key figure in the club’s title pursuit this season.
The ambitious plan involves creating a silhouette of Osimhen in the sky using hundreds of synchronized drones—an unprecedented tribute in Turkish football.

Osimhen, on loan from Napoli, has quickly turned into a cult hero in Istanbul.
His arrival in September 2024 sparked wild celebrations as thousands of Galatasaray fans gathered at the airport, igniting flares and chanting his name in scenes reminiscent of a royal welcome.
The 25-year-old striker made an instant impact, scoring in his debut match during a 5–0 demolition of Rizespor.
He cemented his connection with fans by climbing into the stands to celebrate—a rare and heartfelt gesture that captured the city’s imagination.
Since then, Osimhen has continued to deliver on the pitch. With crucial goals in both the Süper Lig and Europa League, including a brace against Tottenham Hotspur, he’s been instrumental in Galatasaray’s strong campaign, which currently sees them at the top of the league standings.
The proposed drone tribute would mark a historic first in Turkish football fan culture and underscores the deep admiration Galatasaray supporters have for Osimhen.
While official approval is still pending, the spectacle is expected to take place if the club secures the league title.
If realized, this high-tech tribute would not only celebrate a footballing hero but also symbolize the unbreakable bond between Osimhen and the Galatasaray faithful.
