Osimhen out after knee surgery: Galatasaray confirm
Galatasaray confirm the Nigerian striker goes under the knife tomorrow at Acıbadem Maslak and misses the Amed S.F. match.
Victor Osimhen is out of Galatasaray's next match after a left knee injury. According to the club's official Instagram account, the striker will undergo surgery tomorrow.
The problem came up in the Champions League game against VfB Stuttgart. MRI scans found a loose fragment inside the joint, and the treatment is arthroscopic knee surgery led by club doctor Yener İnce at the Acıbadem Maslak hospital in Istanbul.
Surgery and match on the same day
The operation and the game fall on the same day: Galatasaray play Amed S.F. tomorrow, and Osimhen has already been removed from the squad for that fixture.
