Osimhen nears return as Barcelona target

Victor Osimhen is preparing to return to Galatasaray after being sidelined due to injury, with reports indicating that the striker will participate against Kasimpasa on October 9. However, his entry into the match and the duration of his participation will be determined based on the flow of the game and his physical condition.

According to the Turkish newspaper "Sabah", Osimhen will not start the match against Kasimpasa as a starter, but is expected to begin on the bench and receive some minutes gradually, with the aim of regaining match sensitivity after a long absence.

This is part of the coaching staff's plan to prepare Nigerian forward Victor Osimhen for the most important match against FC Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League, scheduled for October 13.

The plan is for Victor Osimhen to be ready to start against FC Barcelona in the starting lineup, after he missed the match against Sporting CP in the first round of the competition due to injury.
