Victor Osimhen injured, future of Galatasaray's Turkish leader unclear

Victor Osimhen injured his knee on Tuesday night against Stuttgart, during the fourth group‑stage match of the Champions League.

Galatasaray's 2-0 victory over the German side did not leave only good memories for the Nigerian striker.

The 27‑year‑old Nigerian underwent surgery on Saturday, according to a football institution in Istanbul.

The arthroscopy cleared the joint after the revelation, via an MRI, of a loose fragment.

In its statement, Galatasaray did not specify the period of unavailability, hoping for a recovery “as soon as possible” for the Turkish league leaders.
