Galatasaray Coach Okan Buruk Hints at Osimhen's Early Return

Okan Buruk, the head coach of Galatasaray, has suggested that Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen could return to action sooner than anticipated following his recent injury. Osimhen underwent surgery two weeks ago after sustaining an arm injury during Galatasaray's UEFA Champions League match against Liverpool.

Initially, it was expected that he would be sidelined until the end of the month. However, Osimhen has spent the last week in the gym and resumed work with the club's physiotherapist on Tuesday.

Buruk has included Osimhen in the squad for Galatasaray's upcoming clash against Gençlerbirliği in two weeks, indicating that if his condition remains favorable, he could play the following week. This news comes after Galatasaray's recent victory over Göztepe, where they won 3-1, strengthening their bid for a third consecutive league title.
