LIVERPOOL, England (AP) — Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen played with a broken arm during the 4-0 loss to Liverpool in the Champions League.

His club said in a statement after Wednesday’s game that Osimhen took a knock on his right arm during the first half at Anfield. He remained on the pitch until halftime but could not resume after the interval due to a suspected fracture.

“After the match, a hospital examination, under the supervision of our medical team, confirmed a fracture of the right forearm, and a cast was applied,” Galatasaray said. “A decision regarding a possible surgical procedure will be made in the coming days after further tests.”
