Osimhen Ruled Out of Super Eagles’ September AFCON Qualifiers With Groin Injury

Victor Osimhen will miss Nigeria’s opening 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches against Madagascar and Guinea-Bissau in September. Galatasaray confirmed that the striker suffered a moderate-to-advanced groin strain with bleeding during the club’s 3-2 win over Istanbul Basaksehir, a match in which he scored. The Turkish club expects Osimhen to return after the international break. His absence is a major setback for the Super Eagles ahead of the two qualifiers.
