Recuperating Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, is expected to make his return from injury when Galatasaray face Kasimpasa in a Turkish Super Lig clash on October 9.
According to reports from Turkish media, Osimhen is expected to feature for at least 30 minutes as he continues his recovery from a groin injury.
The Nigeria international suffered the injury during Galatasaray’s 3-2 victory over Istanbul Basaksehir in September and has since missed three matches, including the club’s opening UEFA Champions League fixture.
Osimhen is also expected to be available for Galatasaray’s Champions League clash with Barcelona on October 13.
The 27-year-old had made an impressive start to the season before his injury, scoring six goals and providing two assists in four appearances for Galatasaray.
