Owen Oseni to miss six weeks with ankle injury

Plymouth Argyle striker Owen Oseni is expected to be sidelined for approximately six weeks due to an ankle injury. The 23-year-old sustained the injury during a match against Crystal Palace Under-21s last month, appearing for only 33 minutes before being forced to leave the pitch.

Head coach Tom Cleverley stated that the club is adopting a cautious recovery approach because Oseni has a history of issues with the same ankle. Specialists have advised extra time to ensure the joint is fully healed and stable. This setback follows a period where Oseni had already missed a significant portion of the pre-season.

Oseni joined Plymouth Argyle from the Scottish club St Mirren last summer. His recent form, including 10 goals in 33 appearances for his previous club, earned him his first senior international cap for Nigeria in May.
