Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, has revealed that he is unbothered by the prospect of surpassing Rashidi Yekini’s longstanding goal record for Nigeria.
Osimhen scored his 23rd goal in Eagles 1-1 daw with Benin Republic last Thursday to equal Segun Odegbami’s record and become the secondjoint-highest scorer in Nigeria’s history behind Yekini, who scored 37 goals in 58 matches.
The striker is seen by many as a strong contender to break the record but he said his primary focus is on contributing to the team’s success rather than individual accolades.
“I don’t care about this (record), I just try to do my job, try to win games, score goals and assist the team,” he dismissed his obsession with chasing the milestone.
