Video: Watch Onyekuru’s Stunning Goal On His Second Appearance In Third Galatasaray Spell

The Super Eagles star is back at the Turkish club for the third consecutive year, and he could not have hoped for a better start 

Henry Onyekuru impressive start in his third stint with Galatasaray continued after scoring his third goal in just two games.

Onyekuru came on as a substitute to score a brace in Galatasaray’s 2-1 win over Gaziantep FK last Friday. He has now continued from where he stopped after opening the scoring in the 3-0 win over Istanbul Basaksehir.

The Nigerian international put Faith Terim’s side ahead with a superb header just before half-time. The strike means he now has 60 goals in his club career.

Onyekuru scored 16 times in his first spell at Galatasaray, helping the side win a league and cup double. His second stint did not turn out so well with just a goal in 12 appearances.

His third spell has turned out to be productive so far with three goals in two games. Onyekuru is currently on loan at Galatasaray from Monaco.
