PSG knocked Liverpool out on penalties in last season’s round of 16. Victor Osimhen has been Galatasaray’s main threat this season, but Liverpool were likely relieved to see him substituted at half-time after struggling in the first half following a painful arm injury sustained in a collision with Szoboszlai.

A club statement read: “Our player Victor Osimhen, who suffered a blow to his arm in the first half of our away match against Liverpool in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 and completed the first half, was not allowed to play in the second half due to the risk of a fracture after checks were carried out at halftime. A decision regarding surgery will be made in the coming days after further evaluation.” The Nigerian striker has netted 19 goals and provided seven assists in 29 appearances across all competitions this season for Turkish giants Galatasaray.
