Trabzonspor have been handed a timely boost with Nigerian striker Paul Onuachu expected to return to full training today (Thursday) following a minor injury setback.
The towering forward was absent during Trabzonspor’s 1-1 draw against Alanyaspor last weekend, a result that dented the club’s title ambitions in the Turkish Super Lig.
The Black Sea Storm now trail league leaders Galatasaray by four points with just six matches left in the campaign.
Onuachu had picked up a thigh injury on the eve of the Alanyaspor clash, raising concerns among fans and coaching staff.
However, medical examinations have provided relief, as MRI scans confirmed there was no serious damage.
According to Turkish outlet Fanatik, the striker also received intravenous treatment for dehydration, and his overall condition has been described as stable and improving.
His imminent return is a major lift for Trabzonspor, who are relying heavily on his goalscoring prowess in the decisive phase of the season.
Onuachu has been in sensational form, leading the league’s scoring chart with 22 goals, making him one of the standout performers in Turkish football this term.
With the title race entering its final stretch, Trabzonspor will be hoping their top marksman regains full fitness quickly as they aim to close the gap on Galatasaray and keep their championship hopes alive.
