Emmanuel Emenike Likely To Start Against Galatasaray
Published: October 17, 2014
Emmanuel Emenike will have only one training session with the Fenerbahce squad ahead of the Istanbul derby against Galatasaray on Saturday evening.
On Thursday, the 27 - year - old left Abuja for Lagos, where he took another flight to Istanbul, and he will only arrive Turkey in the early hours of this morning.
But despite spending close to 10 hours on both flights, the Nigeria international has given his word that he will shake off his travel weariness and be ready for the encounter at the Türk Telekom Arena.
With Moussa Sow doubtful for the clash after picking up a muscle injury while on international duty with Senegal, manager ä°smail Kartal is likely to hand Emmanuel Emenike his fourth start of the season.
