Osimhen Set to Return for Galatasaray in Turkish Cup

Victor Osimhen, the striker for Galatasaray, is poised to make his return in the Turkish Cup quarter-final against Gençlerbirliği after missing the last four matches due to an arm injury. He resumed full training on Monday, which raises hopes for his long-awaited appearance.

Osimhen was included in the squad for the league match last weekend but remained on the bench. According to Turkish outlet Sabah, the 27-year-old is expected to play around 15-20 minutes in the upcoming intercontinental derby against fierce rivals Fenerbahçe.

Galatasaray enters this match as the reigning champions of the Turkish Cup and is in strong form, remaining unbeaten in their last ten matches, with 24 goals scored and eight conceded. Manager Okan Buruk has been without his lead striker during Osimhen's absence, and reports indicate that the Nigerian is eager to be involved as soon as possible, especially ahead of the derby showdown, where Galatasaray has dropped five points during his absence.
