Before the Champions League work at Galatasaray, Victor Osimhen's injury became a topic of discussion. Former Kayserispor player Ghanaian footballer Asamoah Gyan claimed that Victor Osimhen's injury before the Champions League was planned.
INJURED IN NATIONAL MATCH
The Nigerian star could not continue the game against Rwanda in the 2026 World Cup African Qualifiers, and his condition became clear after an MRI. It is expected that Osimhen will not play against Eyüpspor on Saturday, but he is expected to play in the away match against Frankfurt.
ALLEGATION: PLANNED INJURY
Following the events, former Kayserispor player Ghanaian footballer Asamoah Gyan made striking claims about Osimhen. Gyan alleged that Osimhen's injury might have been planned so that he could be fit for the Champions League match.
"I KNOW THESE TRICKS"
Gyan stated, "I know these tricks. Someone told him, 'Look, we spent a lot of money on you. The Champions League is coming. We don't like you going to Africa during the national team break, but play a little there, lie on the ground and act serious, and you'll be in Turkey the next day.'"
The former Ghanaian footballer also said, "Believe me, you will see him running fit in the Turkish Super League and the Champions League. No matter how many kicks they give him there, he won't lie on the ground. The doctors are also involved. Euro is more important than Naira," he said.
