Ajayi Nears Hull City Return; Osimhen Boosts Galatasaray

Semi Ajayi, a 32-year-old central defender, is close to returning to action for Hull City after a hamstring injury that has kept him out of the last seven competitive matches. Ajayi, who joined Hull City on a free transfer from West Bromwich Albion last summer, has made 12 league appearances and scored one goal during the Championship campaign.

Hull City’s assistant coach, Dean Holden, provided an update indicating that Ajayi is making progress and is expected to return soon, which is crucial as the club aims for consistency in the upcoming month. Meanwhile, Victor Osimhen has provided a boost to Galatasaray ahead of their UEFA Champions League showdown against Juventus.

After a minor knee issue that caused concern following a 2-0 defeat to Konyaspor, Osimhen resumed full training on Monday. The Nigerian striker, who has been a key player for Galatasaray, contributed two assists in their previous match and is expected to be pivotal in their second leg UEFA Champions League playoff tie against Juventus in Turin on Wednesday night.
