Victor Osimhen is a doubt for Galatasaray having missed the league defeat to Konyaspor at the weekend due to knee discomfort.

Osimhen’s absence had raised doubts over his availability for the trip to Turin, despite travelling with the squad. However, the Nigerian has attempted to ease concerns about his condition.

Speaking to Sky Sports Italia, he said: “My knee is fine, thank you. I have a little pain in my knee, that is the reason why I didn’t play the last league game, but thanks to the medical team, I am back with the squad and looking forward to facing Juve.”
