Victor Osimhen - Returns off bench Osimhen played five minutes off the bench during Friday's 1-0 win over Alanyaspor.

Impact Osimhen missed most of September with an ankle issue, but returned to action for five minutes off the bench in the Super Lig. He didn't get much run to test his ankle, but seems to be fully fit after missing out against Frankfurt. His next chance for Champions League action is a Tuesday clash with Premier League champions Liverpool.

Ugurcan Cakir - Concedes five goals Cakir registered three saves and allowed five goals in Thursday's 5-1 loss versus Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact Cakir conceded five times on seven shots faced, including an own goal in what turned into a brutally difficult day. The goalkeeper didn't get any sort of help from his defense, as they did little to even slow down the Frankfurt attack. Cakir has another tough clash up next as he takes on Premier League-champions Liverpool next time out.

Davinson Sanchez - Own goal in loss Sanchez had an own goal and one shot (zero on goal) in Thursday's 5-1 loss versus Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact Sanchez had a day to forget, putting past his own goalkeeper and struggling to do anything to handle a pesky Frankfurt attack. It was an awful start to life in the Champions League, and one he will have little time to rue. Next up for Galatasaray is a clash with Liverpool, another match that should prove difficult for Sanchez.

Leroy Sane - Assists Thursday Sane assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Thursday's 5-1 loss to Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact Sane was back playing in Germany, in Frankfurt, and he showed his vision with an early assist, though it was essentially all he did going forward. Frankfurt dominated the match and Sane really couldn't get on the ball, much less get settled in the attack. Sane has another tough clash with Liverpool next time out in the Champions League.

Yunus Akgun - Nets early Akgun scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Thursday's 5-1 loss to Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact Akgun scored early in the first half Thursday, a nice finish, though it was his only big chance of the match. The striker has been a good contributor, and should have upside though he faces another tough clash with Liverpool next up in the Champions League. Akgun should see plenty of opportunities for a talented attack throughout the competition.

Victor Osimhen - Not available against Frankfurt Osimhen (ankle) doesn't make the squad list for Thursday's clash against Frankfurt in the Champions League.

Impact Osimhen hasn't resumed team training yet as he is still dealing with the ankle injury he suffered while on international duty with Nigeria. The striker's next chance to feature in the Champions League will be against Liverpool on Sept. 30. Mauro Icardi is expected to lead the line against the Eagles on Thursday.

Victor Osimhen - Late call against Frankfurt Osimhen is still dealing with pain due to the ankle injury he suffered while on international duty with Nigeria and will be a late call for Thursday's Champions League clash agains...

Impact Osimhen wasn't spotted in team training on Monday as he is still dealing with pain from the ankle injury he suffered while on international duty with Nigeria. The striker will be a late call for Thursday's game and could feature under infiltrations if Galatasaray decides to take the risk of playing him. That said, if they opt for a more conservative approach, Mauro Icardi is expected to lead the line in his place against the Eagles.

Baris Yilmaz - Provides assist in victory Yilmaz came off the bench and provided one assist in Saturday's 2-0 victory against Eyupspor, confirming he is back available for Galatasaray.

Impact Yilmaz was missing from the Galatasaray squad due to a dispute regarding a failed transfer to Saudi Arabia, but that story seems to be in the past as the forward played half an hour in Saturday's victory over Eyupspor and assisted the second goal. This is good news for the Turkish side, as he will be a solid option in the frontline heading into the upcoming Champions League campaign starting on Thursday against Eintracht Frankfurt.

Victor Osimhen - Suffers bad ankle injury Osimhen has suffered a bad ankle injury in Saturday's 1-0 victory against Rwanda and is out for the time being, according to Fisayo Dairo from ACL Sports.

Impact Osimhen suffered an awful tackle from a Rwanda player on his ankle and was forced off in the 35th minute of Saturday's game. The Nigerian striker then missed the match against South Africa on Tuesday for that reason. Reports say he may be out until the end of the month as he still needs to be assessed once back in Turkey. That said, if he has to miss some time and the Champions League opener against Frankfurt on Thursday, Mauro Icardi will replace him in the frontline until he returns.

Baris Yilmaz - Missing due to transfer discrepancy Yilmaz has been held out of the team due to a dispute after a transfer to Saudi Arabia fell through, according to Hurriyet.com.

Impact Yilmaz has not played since the second match of the season after a dispute with his club, as the forward was promised a transfer to NEOM before it ultimately fell through, leaving the forward upset at the decision. He was thought to have had the deal agreed upon before his club rejected the offer that was made. This will now leave the forward in limbo heading into UCL play, as it is unknown if he will continue to serve with the team after trust was broken.

Ilkay Gundogan - Seals move to Galatasaray Gundogan has completed a transfer to Galatasaray from Manchester City, according to his former club.

Impact Gundogan's second stint at City has ended after one season, one he would probably like to forget, with the midfielder now off to Turkey. He had ultimately fallen out of favor with the club as new transfers joined this campaign despite starting in 25 of his 33 appearances last season. This will likely end his time with the club for good, racking in 358 appearances and 65 goals with the club, while winning 14 trophies, including five Premier League titles, a historic treble and captaining a UCL-winning squad. He will now look to see regular minutes while in Turkey, a place where he should still have success and fit the playing style more as he raises in age.

Wilfried Singo - Transfers to Galatasaray Singo has completed a transfer from AS Monaco to Galatasaray, his former club confirmed Thursday.

Impact Singo spent the last two seasons at Monaco after coming from Torino, but the Ivory Coast international will now take his talents to the Turkish Super Lig. He should be a regular for Galatasaray, who made quite an effort to sign him. Singo started in 23 of his 27 league appearances with Monaco in 2024/25.
