UEFA has published the complete breakdown of Player of the Match honours for the 2025/26 UEFA Champions League season, with several of Europe’s biggest stars sharing the spotlight across a dramatic campaign.
Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen emerged as one of the standout performers of the competition, finishing among the top recipients of the award after a series of influential displays that helped the Turkish side progress to the Round of 16.
Osimhen played a key role in Galatasaray’s European campaign, which included a knockout play-off victory over Juventus before they were eventually eliminated by Liverpool on a 4–1 aggregate scoreline.
The Nigerian forward finished the season with four Player of the Match awards — the highest tally shared among several elite names, including Paris Saint-Germain’s Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane, Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappé, and Sporting CP winger Francisco Trincão.
