Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, is on track to break Rashidi Yekini?s goal scoring record.

Osimhen is now six goals behind Yekini, after he scored twice against Gabon in a 2026 World Cup playoff match on Thursday.

The Galatasaray striker had wasted a chance to tie the game at 1-1, but in extra time, he scored two difficult goals to win it.

This comes after he scored a hat-trick in Nigeria?s 4-0 victory against Benin Republic in a 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying match.

Nigeria?s all-time top scorers:

Rashidi Yekini ? 37 goals

Victor Osimhen ? 31 goals

Segun Odegbami ? 23 goals

Yakubu Aiyegbeni ? 21 goals

Ikechukwu Uche ? 19 goals
