Napoli’s Victor Osimhen to Miss Clash Against AC Milan Due to Injury
Osimhen Sustains Injury on International Duty with Nigeria
Napoli’s leading striker, Victor Osimhen, is set to miss their upcoming match against AC Milan due to an injury sustained while on international duty with Nigeria earlier this week. Since his return, the player has missed training and has complained of an abductor strain. The club confirmed this in a statement on their official website, and tests have since confirmed the injury.
Further Evaluation Required
Osimhen, who has scored 25 goals and provided four assists in 28 outings for Napoli this season, will undergo further evaluations next week to determine the extent of the injury. The club certainly hope that the striker can recover from the injury quickly, with the UEFA Champions League quarter-final games against AC Milan being only a few weeks away.
Napoli Will Look to Replace Osimhen
With Victor Osimhen out, Napoli will need to look for a replacement for the striker before their upcoming match against AC Milan. The pressure is on coach Gennaro Gattuso to find a solution to fill the void left by the talismanic forward, who has played a crucial role in the team’s successes this season.
