A well-known trick.
In the match against Rwanda, Nigeria’s striker Victor Osimhen left the field early, around the 35th minute, due to a muscle injury. Former Ghana player Asamoah Gyan suggests there might be more to this situation.
Details: Gyan believes Galatasaray is managing Osimhen’s energy, ensuring he does not suffer a more severe injury while on international duty. He asserts that Osimhen will be fit and ready for club matches when the time comes.
Quote: “I know these tricks. Someone told Osimhen: ‘We invested a lot in you. The Champions League is approaching, and we’re not happy about you going to Africa for international duty. So, go ahead, play a little, lie down on the pitch, and act like it’s serious. You’ll be back in Turkey the next day. It’s just to avoid media attention.’
Believe me, you’ll see him fit and running at full speed in the Turkish league and Champions League. No matter how many times he gets hit, he won’t stay down. The doctors are in on it too. The Euro is worth more than naira,” Gyan stated.
