Osayi-Samuel Returns to Training After Injury Layoff
11
Nigerian fullback, Bright Osayi-Samuel has resumed training after a brief spell on the sidelines due to injury.
The 26-year-old had been out of action since sustaining an injury during Fenerbahce’s 2-2 draw against Göztepe last month.
His injury ruled him out of Nigeria’s recent Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Benin Republic and Rwanda, despite initially being included in the squad.
He was later replaced by Taminu Benjamin.
Osayi-Samuel also missed Fenerbahce’s last three league matches as he recovered.
On Tuesday, the player was seen participating in training, though it remains uncertain whether he will be fit enough to feature in the crucial derby against Galatasaray on Saturday.
Manager, Jose Mourinho was in charge of the team’s session, the prepared for the first Clasico of the season.
So far this season, the Nigerian has made six appearances across all competitions for José Mourinho’s side.
