Galatasaray's star striker Victor Osimhen has started training with the team after his injury, but a critical warning has come from the medical staff. The club doctors have informed the technical team that the Nigerian player's return to the field could pose a risk ahead of the Fenerbahçe derby.
Osimhen, who was injured in the away match against Liverpool in the Champions League and has been away from the team for a while, trained with the team in the last session. However, it remains uncertain whether he will play in the Super League match against Gençlerbirliği. According to Milliyet's report, the club doctors informed Okan Buruk that it would be risky for the player to participate in this match.
A POSSIBLE BLOW COULD ENDANGER THE DERBY
The medical team pointed out that a possible blow to Osimhen's arm could risk his playing in the Fenerbahçe derby. Therefore, a special protective bandage is being prepared for the player, and the technical staff is expected to make a cautious decision.
GETTING PLAYING TIME SEEMS DIFFICULT
It is stated that the star player needs time to be fully ready. Therefore, even if he is included in the squad for the Ankara trip, it is said that it will be difficult for him to get playing time in the Gençlerbirliği match.
OSIMHEN WANTS TO PLAY
On the other hand, it has been learned that Victor Osimhen is eager to return to the field and wants to play. Galatasaray will face Gençlerbirliği in the Super League on Saturday, April 18th, at 20:00 in the evening.
