The Digest:
Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen is expected to make his highly anticipated return for Galatasaray in Wednesday's Turkish Cup quarter-final against Gençlerbirliği at RAMS Park. Osimhen has missed the last four games due to an arm injury. According to Turkish newspaper Sabah, the 27-year-old could play 15-20 minutes to build fitness ahead of Sunday's intercontinental derby against fierce city rivals Fenerbahçe. He participated fully in Monday's training session.
Key Points:
- Osimhen was named in the matchday squad last Saturday but did not play.
- A brief appearance will help him regain match fitness.
- Sunday's derby against Fenerbahçe is the bigger target for his return.
- Galatasaray are unbeaten in their last 10 Turkish Cup matches.
- A win would set up a semi-final against Samsunspor or Trabzonspor.
Nigerian fans will watch eagerly as Osimhen takes his first steps back from injury.
