Victor Osimhen endured a nightmare night as Galatasaray crashed out of the UEFA Champions League after a heavy defeat to Liverpool. Beyond the elimination, the Nigerian striker picked up a serious injury, forcing him off at halftime after a blow to the arm.
In an official statement, Galatasaray confirmed fears of a fracture, with further medical tests scheduled to assess the extent of the damage. “He received a blow to the arm and could not continue due to the risk of a fracture,” the club explained, raising concerns about a potentially lengthy absence.
The bad news didn’t stop there for the Turkish side. Noa Lang also suffered a severe finger injury during the same match and is set to undergo surgery. Two major setbacks that leave Galatasaray weakened in the crucial weeks ahead, as uncertainty now surrounds the recovery timelines of both players.
