Osimhen took injections to play Liverpool match – Rodop

Turkish football transfer expert Süleyman Rodop has revealed that Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen played his side’s UEFA Champions League tie against Liverpool with painkiller injections.

Recall that Osimhen’s first-half penalty gave the Turkish Süper Lig champions a 1-0 victory against Liverpool at Rams Park.

Before the encounter, Osimhen had sustained an ankle ligament injury against Rwanda in a World Cup qualifier while on international duty with the Super Eagles of Nigeria a few weeks ago.

“Victor Osimhen played the Liverpool match with painkiller injections,” Rodop was quoted by Habersarikirmizi as saying.

“A day before the match, he said, ‘I have to play in this match, I will play with injections if necessary.’

“Whether Victor Osimhen will play in the Beşiktaş match will be determined in a day or two.”

Galatasaray’s next fixture is against Beşiktaş in the Süper Lig this weekend.
