The Nigerian Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has resumed full training after recovering from a back injury that kept him out of the international friendly against Portugal in November.

Osimhen just as yesterday trained with the rest of the team and has been listed as part of the players traveling for winter tour in Turkey, where they will play against Antalyaspor and Crystal Palace.

Also in coach Luciano Spalletti squad for the journey are Kvicha Kvaratskhelia and  Amir Rrhmani, who had missed the last few games of Serie A in 2022 due to injuries.

Luciano Spalletti and his men set off this afternoon for the airport and will be in Turkey until December 11.

Osimhen before his injury was in a blistering form scoring five in five. He is also  the league leading goalscorer with nine goals in the league.

His return gives the team a boost as the Partenopei prepare for the second half of the season with aim of remaining at the top of the table and winning the league for the first time since 1990.
