Prominent Turkish sports journalist Ali Naci Küçük has disclosed how many matches Victor Osimhen is expected to miss for Galatasaray.
The striker is recovering from a knee injury sustained in the UEFA Champions League clash against Stuttgart.
The Nigeria international has undergone successful surgery and will be unavailable for the Super Eagles' AFCON qualifiers against Tanzania this month.
Giving an update on the forward's condition during an appearance on the 343 Digital YouTube channel, Küçük stated that the 27-year-old will miss Galatasaray's upcoming fixtures against Samsunspor, Aston Villa and Beşiktaş.
"Osimhen underwent a successful operation. He will stay in Istanbul for a while to continue his treatment. A fragment has fallen out of his knee. Due to this fragment, his return may be delayed," Küçük said.
"His condition will be clearer in 10 days. Due to that detached fragment, it seems that Osimhen's return to the field will take up to five weeks. Osimhen is not expected to play in the Samsunspor, Aston Villa, and Beşiktaş matches."
