The Nigerian forward, who had just moments earlier etched his name into the club’s history, requested to be taken off after appearing to suffer a strain in his thigh muscles.
Galatasaray’s fears were confirmed when the club released an official statement revealing that Osimhen had sustained a strain to his abductor muscle.
This development has caused significant worry, particularly given the congested fixture schedule and the recent loss of Mauro Icardi for the remainder of the season.
However, a fresh report has offered fans a sigh of relief, as it suggests that a potential return date for the Napoli loanee is now on the horizon.
According to a report from the Turkish outlet, Persindeyiz Galatasaray, Osimhen is expected to be available as early as the next Turkish league clash against Trabzonspor.
This recently surfaced report appears to confirm the swirling rumours that the forward’s injury is not as severe as many had speculated.
So far, the 25-year-old seems to have adjusted well to life at the Istanbul club—and in impressive fashion—racking up 10 goals and four assists in his 13 appearances, according to data from Fotmob.
Osimhen is now expected to resume light training soon and join group training before the end of the week, ahead of the upcoming fixture.
