Victor Osimhen has been omitted from Galatasaray’s squad for Thursday night’s UEFA Champions League away clash against Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt, reports Completesports.com.
The Turkish Super Lig champions listed 23 players for the encounter which hold at the Deutsche Bank Park.
Osimhen picked up an injury in Nigeria’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Amavubi of Rwanda two weeks ago.
The 26-year-old was replaced around the half hour mark by Panathinaikos striker, Cyriel Dessers.
Osimhen missed Nigeria’s subsequent game against Bafana Bafana of South Africa due to the injury.
The injury also. forced the powerful forward to miss the Yellow and Reds league clash with Eyupspor last weekend.
Head coach Okan Buruk will now bank of experienced hitman Mauro Icardi to deliver the goods for his side in Osimhen’s absence.

This guy has just been vindicated, gyan this is no faking at all. Osi bobo remains a committed player any time anyday.
Hahahaha…this is all a plan… lmao they know that if they put him in the squad for tomorrow’s champions league game, some passionate Nigerians and my humble self will be here to drag them to Filth and to say see we said it ….. lmao…. So to avoid all that they just want to gamble this game(I hope it doesn’t back fire tho cos it’s like a risk here) to make the faked injury look real and to make those that exposed their plans wrong …but it is only those that are wise and not the gullible ones that understand the game that Galatasaray are playing here .. lmao okay just watch next champions league fixture now they will put him on .. hahahaha
After paying €75m to get Osimhen, you then sat with him to agree to sit out an important champions league match in other to prove a point, please make it make sense, is this not a true definition of madness. Please let’s know how much we need to contribute to assist you to mental health center, this is really an insanity case, may help come your way soon in Jesus name.
My brother, let a dog think like a dog biko…..LMAOooo. Its not madness, its its natural ability.
You pay through your nose to acquire a player for 75m, pay him 400k per week, and then you sit down with him and agree with him to fly 7hrs to Nigeria and fake an injury in an international game, and then send your private jet to fly him 7hrs back to turkey to sit him out of the squad for a further two weeks……LMAOoooo.
Once again, leave a dog to think like a dog.
I don’t know your age, but you seem like a guy who just graduated from secondary school with the way you comment on this platform.
Always sound foolish.
Buhahhahaha.
Even Asamoah Gyan has come out to say the news is fake…….LMAOOooo.
But one daft imbecile who swallowed fake news hook, line, and sinker is here classifying itself as wise and not gullible….LMAOOOoo
I wonder which club deliberately puts a 400k per week player out of the squad for 2 weeks just to fake an injury……LMAoooo.
Wonders shall never end.
The guy doesn’t deserve a normal convo, let alone trading words or insults with him. He always sounds petty like a 15 year old.
