Victor Osimhen has all the intention to play for Napoli also next season. The Nigerian striker attracted attention all over the world after scoring 26 goals in Serie A. Therefore, there were a lot of rumors that Victor could have moved to different leagues playing for another top European team.
However, during a recent interview, he confirmed that he is looking forward to playing another season with Napoli. Talking to the Nigerian Soccernet portal, he commented:
“I’ve won one of the most prestigious titles in world football. And I won it with a club that appreciates the little things you do for them. Winning the Scudetto is a big one for me. Whatsoever thing that comes after this (will also be) a big one for me, like the Champions League, the League Cup, and all sorts.
“I’m so proud that I am actually a Scudetto winner, for me, it’s a huge one. Whatsoever honour that comes after this, I will welcome it. And I am really working hard to make sure, and now I am addicted to trophies because now the Scudetto is my first trophy as a pro.
Now I’m addicted, and I can’t wait for the new season to come.”
Talking about Napoli, he added:
“I have never seen a city crazier about football like the way the Neapolitans are,. They show all their players love. And wherever I go to, I am being respected. Kids love me, a lot of people admire me, they idolize me by putting on the replica of my mask.
“It shows the hard work I have given to them and what I mean to them. And for me, there’s no better place to be than this place. I am so happy I made the right choice by coming here. And achieving this kind of greatness with the Neapolitans is something that I will wake up and always smile about.
My children’s children will come into this world and realize that their father has done something amazing.”
🏆 “Now I’m addicted to trophies!” 🏆
