‘I’m really happy’ – Durosinmi thrilled with injury recovery

Viktoria Plzen forward, Rafiu Durosinmi, is in a buoyant mood after stepping onto the pitch again following his lengthy injury layoff.

Durosinmi was sidelined for around 15 months due to a knee injury.

The injury halted the striker’s move to Bundesliga outfit Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023.

The Nigerian had already agreed to a four-year contract with Frankfurt before failing a medical.

Durosinmi, however, has bounced back strongly from the setback, scoring three goals and providing one assist in his last two games for Plzen.

He grabbed a brace in his club’s 2-0 win at Teplice last weekend.

The 22-year-old registered a goal and an assist in Plzen’s 3-0 Europa League victory over Ferencváros on Thursday night.

“It has not been easy for me to return [from injury], but with the help of the doctor, my family, physio, and the team, I came back stronger. [On Sunday] I scored twice in the league; today, I scored again. I am really happy,” he told Nova Sport.
