Victor Osimhen returned to training with his Galatasaray teammates on Tuesday ahead of Thursday’s UEFA Europa League clash against Tottenham Hotspur.
Softfootball understands that the Nigerian striker had missed the club’s previous three training sessions due to a minor injury but has now resumed full training and is back in contention for the highly anticipated encounter.
The Europa League fixture will be played at RAMS Park in Istanbul, with Osimhen expected to be named in the starting line-up.
Since arriving at Galatasaray on loan this summer, the 25-year-old has formed an impressive attacking partnership with Argentine striker Mauro Icardi under head coach Okan Buruk.
Osimhen has enjoyed a bright start to life in Turkey, contributing four goals and three assists in seven appearances across all competitions.
His return is a timely boost for Galatasaray as they prepare to face Tottenham in what promises to be one of the standout fixtures of the Europa League round. The Turkish champions will be hoping the Super Eagles forward can continue his impressive form and inspire them to a positive result on home soil.
