Victor Osimhen set to undergo medical scan after picking injury during October International break
Victor Oismhen’s future remains doubtful following TikTok controversy
Victor Osimhen, who sustained an injury while travelling with Nigeria during the international break, is anticipated to board a flight back to Italy on Monday, one day earlier than planned in order to receive medical attention.
Midway through his country’s 2-2 friendly match with Roberto Mancini’s Saudi Arabia on Friday night, the 2022–23 Serie A top scorer hobbled out due to an injury that now needs to be examined to determine the seriousness of the problem.
Osimhen may need to rest for at least a few days, according to Tuttomercatoweb, even though the extent of the injury is yet unconfirmed.
Osimhen has a regrettable history of suffering injuries and diseases while serving with Nigeria; he injured his shoulder in November 2020 and twice developed COVID.
