‘Best striker in the world’ – Fans praise Osimhen for his performance in Napoli’s UCL win
Nigerian forward Victor Osimhen has been one of the most efficient scorers in the world this season, with 20 goals and four assists in 24 games for Napoli.
The 24-year-old was on target once more as the Partenopei cruised to a 2-0 win over 10-man Eintracht Frankfurt at the Deutsche Bank Park.
Osimhen bundled home a low cross from Mexican forward Hirving Lozano in the 40th minute to give Luciano Spaletti ‘s side the lead.
Fans and experts around the world raved about the Super Eagles forward’s lethal form in front of goal as they continued to bestow on him the tag of “the best striker in the world.”
Victor Osimhen is the best striker in Europe at the moment. I am happy for Rashford’s bust of form, but this is not a conversation about form, it’s a conversation about the whole season! https://t.co/F1Bn8ctUrE
