Osimhen ruled out for a month with injury

The Super Eagles and Napoli forward Victor Osimhen is expected to miss a month of action due to a thigh injury.

The forward was substituted in Napoli’s 4-1 win against Liverpool on Wednesday after picking up an injury.

In a statement by the club, the Nigerian forward had hurt the femoral bicep in his right thigh.

The striker could be out of action for more than a month as a result of the setback.

Osimhen has made six appearances across all competitions for the Partonopei, scoring two goals.

He will miss the weekend’s game against Spezia and is also expected to be out of this month’s international break.
