Napoli head coach Luciano Spalletti has come to lavish praises on Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen after his impressive form this past few days for his club and country. The Nigerian scored in their last game in the Europa League, which makes him the second player to score in three goals straight in a European tournament.
Luciano Spalletti Parises Victor Osimhen for Impressive Form
The Nigerian international netted a goal in Napoli’s 3-0 win over Legia Warsaw in Thursday’s Europa League. Osimhen has now scored four goals in three Europa League matches this campaign, and he also has a tally of five goals after seven league appearances for the Serie A leaders.
In a chat with TribalFootball, Napoli head coach Luciano Spalletti described Victor Osimhen as a player who is willing to learn and improve his game despite his goal-scoring form. The Italian said: “He is accustomed to galloping in wide-open spaces, so coming back to get the ball or support his teammate and then make the run are things he is still learning. He’s a great professional, a lovely guy who is eager to learn and improve.
He also said: “His teammates adore him, he wants to be with them all the time, and we’re very fortunate to have him.
