Osimhen to Undergo Surgery: Faces Six-Week Sideline

1 / 7

Victor Osimhen suffered a fractured right forearm during Galatasaray’s Champions League clash at Anfield against Liverpool. He collided heavily with defender Ibrahima Konaté and was forced off in distress. Medical checks confirmed the break. The 27-year-old returned to Nigeria for rest before his scheduled operation. In a live chat with influencer Carter Efe, he said, “I need to go under the knife … six weeks at most, and I will be back to football.” He outlined his rehab plan: four weeks of healing, then two weeks of solo training to regain fitness. His eventual return will depend on a smooth post-surgery recovery.
