Super Eagles fans can breathe a sigh of relief as reports confirm Victor Osimhen’s injury is not as serious as initially feared.
The forward was substituted late in Galatasaray’s goalless draw against Fenerbahçe on Monday, with early concerns about a possible setback.
However, reports suggest his removal was precautionary.

Galatasaray conducted medical tests on Tuesday, and results from Turkey indicate there is no major concern.
The club will continue to monitor his condition throughout the week, though it remains uncertain if he will be fit for this weekend’s fixture against Kasımpaşa.
Just like Nigerian fans, Galatasaray supporters will be eager to see Osimhen return to action.
The striker has been key to their push for the league title, delivering crucial performances.
Osimhen has scored 14 goals and provided four assists in 19 Super Lig appearances.
Before Galatasaray’s elimination from the Europa League, he also netted six goals and registered an assist in seven games.
How important is Victor Osimhen's fitness for Super Eagles hopes?
Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle will be pleased with the latest reports from Turkey confirming that Victor Osimhen’s injury is not serious.
With Nigeria set to face Rwanda and Zimbabwe in two crucial FIFA World Cup qualifiers, Chelle hopes to have the striker available when he announces his first squad in two weeks.

Osimhen remains Nigeria’s most prolific active player, with 21 goals in 35 appearances.
The in-form forward's presence will be vital as the Super Eagles aim to strengthen their qualification chances for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
So far, he is yet to appear in any of the World Cup qualifiers due to injuries as Nigeria only managed four goals from four matches and failed to win a game.
