Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen rejoined Galatasaray's full squad on Wednesday as they began preparations for their next league match.
The striker had limped off during Galatasaray's 3-3 draw with Kasimpasa a few weeks ago and has not featured since.
Victor Osimhen back to full training
Osimhen, who scored twice before being substituted, had started individual training last week and has now returned to the main squad as they gear up for Saturday's league clash against Antalyaspor.
Before his injury, the striker had been in excellent form for the Turkish giants, scoring twice in four games and providing three assists.
Ahead of Tuesday's training, Osimhen spoke with the press, expressing his happiness at the club, and credited Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk for playing a significant role in his decision to stay.
Osimhen hails Okan Buruk influence
“I was going to leave after 3–4 months, I was planning to go somewhere else, but I spoke with Okan Buruk at that time,” Osimhen said.
“He had a deep impact on me as a father figure, coach, and individual. He told me about the team's quality and their big ambitions.”
He also praised his teammates, acknowledging them as another reason for his decision to stay at Galatasaray for the rest of the season.
“Playing alongside these players and achieving success was convincing. When I arrived, I saw how serious the club was,” he added. “We are very happy here as a family.”
Galatasaray currently leads the Turkish Süper Lig with 22 points from eight matches, four points ahead of their nearest rivals, Samsunspor.
