AFCON 2027Q: Osimhen to miss Super Eagles vs Tanzania double-header

Victor Osimhen will miss Nigeria's 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying double-header against Tanzania due to injury.

Turkish champions Galatasaray announced on Friday that the striker will undergo a knee surgery on Saturday.

Osimhen sustained the injury during the Yellow and Reds UEFA Champions League home clash against Bundesliga club Stuttgart on Tuesday.

The 27-year-old has been removed from Galatasaray's matchday squad for Saturday's league clash against Amedspor.

The striker is expected to spend time on the sidelines following the setback.

Nigeria will host the Taifa Stars of Tanzania in an AFCON 2027 qualifying matchday three encounter at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo on Friday, 13 November.

The reverse fixture will hold four days later in Dar es Salaam.
