Osimhen Suspended for Galatasaray’s Europa League Game Against AZ Alkmaar
Victor Osimhen will be unavailable for Galatasaray’s first-leg UEFA Europa League playoff against AZ Alkmaar due to suspension.
The Nigerian striker received his third yellow card of the tournament during last month’s 2-1 loss to Ajax, ruling him out of the upcoming match.
However, the 26-year-old will be back for the return leg at RAMS Park next week. So far, he has netted four goals in the competition this season.
Despite his absence, Galatasaray’s manager, Okan Buruk, remains confident in his squad’s ability to handle the challenge.
“We have some key players missing due to injuries and suspensions, and we didn’t travel with a large squad. But I trust my starting 11 and those coming off the bench,” Buruk said via the club’s official website.
He added that the team will fight to secure a strong position ahead of the second leg.

Former footballer Zlatan Ibrahimovic speaks on the World Cup and shares his thoughts on who could possibly win the FIFA World Cup 2026.
He spoke about the players who are performing really well and carrying their teams.
“Harry Kane, he did three things. Two goals and one run he did. We talk about Messi for Argentina, France with Mbappe, but they have other superstars also. Sir Harry Kane is England, and the way he performed today, he needs to continue like that if this England is going to have a chance.”
Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi speaks on the Netherlands’ elimination from the World Cup.
The coach explained why the team was eliminated. “Morocco has gained everybody’s respect now,” Ouahbi said, adding: “It’s not because of what we’ve said. We’ve now shown it.
“We completely dominated a Netherlands team. We had 70% possession, more shots and more expected goals. We controlled the match. We wanted to stay calm, play our game and believe that if it went to penalties, we had an exceptional goalkeeper. We didn’t turn the match into a chaotic battle. We controlled it.”
