Victor Osimhen Returns to Training Ahead of Galatasaray vs Fenerbahçe Istanbul Derby

Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has returned to training with Galatasaray ahead of the eagerly awaited Istanbul derby against Fenerbahçe on Monday. The Nigerian international had been sidelined for 11 days following a hamstring strain sustained during Nigeria’s World Cup qualifying playoff final against DR Congo in Morocco.

Osimhen’s absence was felt as Galatasaray secured a 3–2 league win over Gençlerbirliği but suffered a 1–0 defeat to Union St. Gilloise in the Champions League. His return now provides a timely boost ahead of one of the season’s biggest fixtures.

The striker was spotted training with his teammates in a series of images shared on the club’s official X (Twitter) page, signaling that he is ready to feature in the showdown.
