Osimhen Eyes Champions League Return | Nigeria News

Victor Osimhen is pushing to return for Galatasaray’s crucial Champions League clash against Sporting Lisbon, despite a groin injury that forced him off early in their match against Istanbul Başakşehir. The striker, who opened the scoring before his exit, downplays the severity and is eager to play if cleared by medical staff. An MRI is underway to assess the strain on his right adductor muscle — alongside a teammate’s injury — with results pending. His availability looms large for both club and country, as Nigeria eyes AFCON qualifiers against Madagascar and Guinea-Bissau. With optimism from Osimhen and ongoing treatment, fans are holding their breath for a swift comeback ahead of the high-stakes European showdown.
