Victor Osimhen Returns to Training Ahead of Stuttgart Clash

Victor Osimhen is in contention to start for Galatasaray against VfB Stuttgart on Tuesday after returning to full team training on Monday. This follows a fitness scare during the weekend when he scored a header in the 12th minute of Galatasaray's 4-0 victory over Konyaspor but appeared to sustain a knock in the first half.

He was substituted in the 61st minute by head coach Okan Buruk. Concerns about his fitness grew after he was seen limping post-match, but he participated fully in training ahead of the Stuttgart fixture without limitations.

The discomfort he experienced is believed to be minor, and Buruk's decision to substitute him was precautionary. Osimhen has been a standout performer this season, scoring nine goals in the Turkish Süper Lig and reaching ten goals in ten appearances across all competitions.

Galatasaray currently sits 23rd in the Champions League standings with three points, needing a strong performance against Stuttgart, who are unbeaten in their European campaign.
