Victor Osimhen, a Nigerian striker, is anticipated to start full training again on April 20 in preparation for the season’s most important domestic match on April 26 against Fenerbahce.
Victor Osimhen’s recuperation from the forearm injury he sustained during last month’s UEFA Champions League match against Liverpool appears to be proceeding according to reports from the Aksam Newspaper. The Premier League team lost the second leg of the match 4-0 to Galatasaray, but ultimately won the match 4-1 on aggregate.
Shortly after the second-leg match, the 27-year-old Nigerian international reportedly had surgery and has been recovering away from the first team.
Coach Okan Buruk’s team is in a tight title competition, so Osimhen’s anticipated return couldn’t come at a better moment. Last Saturday, Galatasaray suffered a 2-1 loss to Trabzonspor at Papara Park, which revealed the team’s lack of innovation in the absence of their top striker.
One of the best players in Turkish football this season has been Osimhen. In 29 games, he has contributed seven assists and 19 league goals, helping to keep Galatasaray at the top for a large portion of the season. He is the most productive player at the Turkish giants thanks to his combination of strength, speed, and constant pushing.
