Osimhen Back In Training, Set For Galatasaray Return

Victor Osimhen returns to full training with Galatasaray ahead of Monday’s clash with Konyaspor.

The Nigerian striker’s comeback boosts the Turkish champions as they aim to extend their perfect league run.

Victor Osimhen has returned to full training with his Galatasaray teammates after recovering from injury, putting him in contention for Monday’s Turkish Super Lig clash against Konyaspor at RAMS Park.

The Nigerian striker picked up an injury during the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Rwanda two weeks ago, forcing him to miss Galatasaray’s last two fixtures across all competitions.

In his absence, Okan Buruk’s side managed a 2-0 win over Eyupspor, but suffered a heavy 4-1 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League last Thursday.

Osimhen’s return is a major boost for the Turkish champions, who remain unbeaten in the league this season, winning all five of their matches so far. The 26-year-old has already scored two goals in three league appearances, underlining his importance to Galatasaray’s attack.

With the forward back in training, Buruk now has the option of restoring his top striker to the lineup as Galatasaray looks to maintain its perfect domestic record.

Galatasaray hosts Konyaspor in Monday night’s fixture, and Osimhen’s availability could prove decisive as the Yellow and Red aim to extend their winning streak and keep pressure at the top of the table.

Fans will be eager to see whether the Super Eagles star makes his competitive return on the pitch or is eased back gradually after his short spell on the sidelines.
