Coach of Napoli Gennaro Gattuso says Nigeria international forward Victor Osimhen is finally showing the form that made the club splash big on him in the summer.
Osimhen followed up his goal against Lazio over the weekend with another in yesterday’s 2-0 win over Torino which further cemented their hopes of qualifying for the UEFA Champions League.
The Nigerian now has seven Serie A goals this season with five coming in his last nine games. A sign of his return to form after a run of games, something he hasn’t enjoyed since his move to the team in the summer.
Gattuso who has been under fire lately for sanctioning the purchase of the Nigerian from Lille for around €90 million last summer said he is now living up to his ability.
“He is slowly getting his bearing right after a run of consecutive games. The numerous setbacks he had didn’t help him to settle in his new environment but now he is unstoppable. The confidence is back”, Gattuso said.
