Osimhen's Knee Injury Leads Galatasaray to Konyaspor Defeat
Turkish sports commentator Ibrahim Seten reported that Victor Osimhen refused to travel to Konyaspor due to knee pain, forcing Galatasaray to field a weakened team in their Turkish Super Lig match. The Nigerian striker's absence contributed to a 2-0 loss. Seten stated Buruk wanted Osimhen to join the squad but he prioritized recovery. Osimhen has resumed training ahead of Wednesday's Champions League return leg against Juventus in Italy.
