Galatasaray Coach Says Victor Osimhen Is Still Not Fully Fit to Return to Action
Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk has confirmed that Victor Osimhen is still not fully fit following the injury he picked up on international duty with Nigeria two weeks ago.
The 26-year-old striker sat out the Turkish champions’ league game against Eyupspor last weekend and was tipped to return in time for their UEFA Champions League clash with Eintracht Frankfurt. However, his name was missing from the 23-man squad that traveled to Germany on Wednesday.
Buruk explained that despite efforts in training, Osimhen wasn’t ready to feature. “Osimhen has been dealing with an injury. We couldn’t use him in the league, and while we hoped he would be ready for this game, it didn’t work out,” Buruk told the club’s official website. “He trained for the past two days, but his feedback made it clear he’s not yet fit to play.”
It has been reported that Liverpool turned down the opportunity to sign Real Madrid star Vinícius Júnior.
It can be noted that two teams have set their sights on the player, and since Liverpool has backed out, Arsenal are now interested in him.
Vinícius notably only has one year left on his Real Madrid contract and could possibly transfer to another team.
It can be noted that Karim Adeyemi, a Nigerian football player, just signed with Barcelona and shared his reason behind joining the team. He stated that it was because of Hansi Flick.
He shared how he wants to contribute to the club and admires the coach for making that possible.
“Hansi Flick is the main reason why I’m here. I have spoken a lot with him and have trusted him greatly from the very first moment. I’m willing to help to achieve the objectives.”
