Osimhen is currently one of the best strikers in the world, and a former French striker acknowledged this.
Legendary French striker David Trezeguet believes that Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen is the ideal striker.
In 2020, Napoli paid €72 million to acquire Osimhen from Lille. However, due to injuries, he struggled to fit into the Naples setup in his first season.
However, since last season, the Super Eagles striker has evolved into one of the most lethal strikers in the world.
He finished last season in Serie A with 14 goals. And he has already surpassed his personal best with 17 goals in 18 league games this season.
Apart from his outstanding goal tally, his goals have also come at a good time for Napoli, as they have helped the team secure last-minute victories.

“He’s talked about a lot and demonstrated a lot in Germany and France.
“He’s already done it with Lille, where he did very well. He’s a one-of-a-kind player, a prototype of the new player, quick, and moves a lot.
I’ve exceed my expectations as a footballer – Victor Osimhen
“I think he has become a striker with an important profile. He understands how to move and manage himself in the game.”
This season, Napoli has been outstanding. With a 15-point lead at the top of Serie A, they appear to be favorites to win the Scudetto.
For over 30 years, they have been denied the Serie A title. With Osimhen’s brilliance this season, if they can hold on until the end of the season, his place in Napoli’s history books will be secure.
