Osimhen Played with a Broken Arm Against Liverpool in the Champions League

LIVERPOOL, England — Galatasaray’s Champions League night at Anfield ended in a 4-0 defeat to Liverpool and a sobering medical bulletin: star striker Victor Osimhen completed the first half with a fractured right arm.

The Nigeria international took a knock to the arm midway through the opening period but continued until the whistle. He did not reappear for the second half, and post-match scans at a local hospital confirmed a fracture of the right forearm. Club doctors immediately immobilised the limb in a cast; Galatasaray said further tests will determine whether surgery is required.

Osimhen’s injury overshadowed a tie that saw Liverpool overturn a 1-0 first-leg deficit and book a quarter-final date with holders Paris Saint-Germain.
