Abuja, Nigeria – (African Boulevard News) – Former Juventus forward, Alessandro Del Piero, has pointed out the traits that make Victor Osimhen an excellent addition to Napoli this year. Osimhen, a Nigerian star, scored his first goal for the Neapolitans in their 2-0 win against Sampdoria in the Serie A opener.
Del Piero highlighted Osimhen’s strength, speed, and dribbling skills as his standout attributes. Speaking in an interview, the legendary Italian forward said, “Osimhen is a very strong player. He is fast, and he is very good with the ball at his feet. When he runs, he is very difficult to stop.”
Osimhen joined Napoli from Ligue 1 outfit Lille in the summer transfer window in a €70m deal. The 22-year-old Nigerian was brought in as a direct replacement for Gonzalo Higuain, who departed Napoli in 2018.
Despite being a relatively new addition to the Napoli team, Osimhen has already made his mark on the pitch. His spectacular strike against Udinese last week earned the Neapolitan fans their first Scudetto in 33 years.
Osimhen’s performance against Udinese impressed Del Piero, who highlighted the forward’s composure and technique during the game. “During the game against Udinese, Osimhen showed that he has a lot of composure in front of the goal. He took his time when he received the ball, and he showed excellent technique with his left foot when he scored,” Del Piero said.
Napoli fans have high hopes for Osimhen, and his performance against Sampdoria and Udinese suggests that he is ready to take on the challenge. With Del Piero’s endorsement, Osimhen’s reputation is only set to grow in Italy, and he could potentially become one of Napoli’s most valuable players this season.
The Nigerian forward will be looking to continue his impressive form when Napoli takes on Genoa on Sunday. With his strength, speed, and dribbling skills, Osimhen is expected to be a crucial player for Napoli this season, and his performances will undoubtedly be closely watched by fans and critics alike.
In conclusion, Victor Osimhen’s impressive debut has already caught the attention of football experts, and Del Piero’s endorsement has only added to the hype. With his excellent attributes, Osimhen has the potential to become Napoli’s star player this season and lead them to success in the Serie A. The Nigerian forward’s future looks bright, and Napoli fans will undoubtedly be excited to see what he has in store for them in the coming weeks.
