On Friday, Roberto Mancini’s Saudi Arabia defeated Victor Osimhen’s Nigeria (2-2). Unfortunately, the latter left with an injury an hour into the game, replaced by Terem Moffi. Bad news for Napoli, sufficiently concerned about the Rudi Garcia file to manage. If the star striker does not seem to be seriously affected, the Nigerian coach preferred to clarify things straight away.

“We are in contact with Naples, the situation must be monitored. He is at the clinic, he will do the tests and then we will decide whether he will stay with us or return to Italy immediately. If he stays, he will hardly play. He could risk injury for a month or two. It could be dangerous to enter the field in three days”. Nigeria will not take any risks with Victor Osimhen, who could therefore return to Naples sooner than expected.
