“Victor returned from Monaco yesterday after having passed the medical examinations. They showed that he is fit to play tomorrow,” Galtier revealed.
“He had a very thorough assessment, and today we got the green light that he can play. And he wants to play.”
Osimhen has scored 12 goals in 23 appearances in all competitions for Lille this season.
Lille are currently third on 31 points in the league table, 11 points behind leaders Paris Saint-Germain.
