Under the leadership of Rudi Garcia, Napoli have had a mixed start to the season in the league and the Champions League. And while several executives, including Victor Osimhen, have already clashed with the former OL and OM coach, a new hard blow has just hit the Partenopei. Top scorer in Serie A last season, the Nigerian striker was injured in the selection against Saudi Arabia last Friday (2-2). Back in Campania to take additional exams, the verdict came on Monday.
Indeed, as reported Sky Sports Italy who managed to obtain a press release from the Neapolitan club, the 24-year-old striker suffers from a hamstring injury: “After the injury suffered in the national team, Victor Osimhen was visited and subjected to additional examinations which revealed a medium grade injury to the biceps femoris of the right thigh. The Italian striker began his treatment at SSCN Konami.» For this type of injury, the time of absence is estimated at 4 or even 6 weeks. A terrible blow for Napoli.
