Nigeria Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen has become a father of two after welcoming a baby girl with his partner, Stefanie Kim Ladewig. The couple's new arrival was confirmed by Osimhen's club, Galatasaray, in an official post on X on Thursday, October 29th.

The Turkish club extended warm wishes to the family in their announcement, writing:

"Our Football A Team player Victor Osimhen and Stefanie have welcomed a baby girl into the world. We congratulate the couple Victor and Stefanie; we wish their newborn baby Liora Audrey a long, healthy, and happy life!"

The newborn, Liora Audrey, joins her older sister Hailey True, who arrived in October 2022.

Stefanie, a Cameroonian-German fashion model and influencer, has been in a relationship with Osimhen since 2019, when the striker was playing for Wolfsburg in Germany.

Birth follows frightening crash

The arrival of Liora Audrey carries particular significance for the family after a terrifying incident just weeks earlier. On October 13, Stefanie was involved in a three-vehicle collision in Eyupsultan, Istanbul, while she was eight months pregnant. She walked away from the crash unharmed.

The safe birth of their daughter, coming so soon after that ordeal, will be a source of enormous relief and joy for Osimhen and his family.
