Galatasaray Await Final Word on Osimhen Ahead of Fenerbahçe Clash

Galatasaray are facing a crucial fitness concern ahead of the highly anticipated Süper Lig derby against Fenerbahçe, as star striker Victor Osimhen’s availability is still in doubt.

The 27-year-old forward, who traveled with the squad to Ankara for the Gençlerbirliği fixture but did not feature, continues to be monitored closely by the medical team. His condition has become a focal point in the build-up to Sunday’s decisive clash.

Club reporter Kutlu Akpınar provided the latest update, noting that while Osimhen is expected to be involved, he will not be at full capacity:

‘We expect Osimhen to get time in the derby on Sunday but he won’t be 100% ready. He will work extra until match day and his situation will be clarified on Friday.’

Galatasaray enter the derby with a four-point lead over their rivals, adding further weight to the encounter. The outcome is expected to play a pivotal role in shaping the championship race.
