Galatasaray president Durzan Ozbek expects Victor Osimhen to be “fit for Monday’s Istanbul derby” against Fenerbahce.
Osimhen has yet to feature for the Yellow and Reds since picking up an injury during Nigeria’s 2026 FIFA World Cup playoff final against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The 26-year-old has missed Galatasaray’s last two matches across all competitions.
Ozbek on Osimhen
Ozbek confirmed that Osimhen will be “included in the squad” for the clash with the Yellow Canaries.
“Our players who return from the defence will be in the squad in the Fenerbahçe derby,” Ozbek was quoted by Gozlem Gazetesi.
“Osimhen’s supposed to be on the roster on Monday, I guess. Because in our speeches so far, the target was that our other players who return from the other injury will probably be on our squad.
“We’re going to the field with a great team.”
