Victor Osimhen: An insatiable Goal Poacher Despite spending four weeks on the sidelines due to injury, Victor Osimhen still sits atop the Serie A goalscorer’s chart with seven league goals. T

Despite spending four weeks on the sidelines due to injury, Victor Osimhen still sits atop the Serie A goalscorer’s chart with seven league goals. The Super Eagles striker only last weekend joined the elite class like George Opong Weah as only five African players to have scored Serie A hat-tricks

Even more impressively, Osimhen has now scored 31 goals in Serie A, making him the joint-most prolific Nigerian star in the history of the Italian top flight. While wearing the colours of Roma, Liverpool’s Salah scored all the goals as AS Roma ran out 3-0 winners over Bologna in 2016.After joining the elite group of Africa’s Serie A hat-trick kings, Osimhen is both delighted and thirsty for more such feats.

The goal not only pleased Spalletti but it also showed the Italian manager that Osimhen possesses qualities alien to a regular striker. With a rating of 9.7, Osimhen is the highest rated player in the Team of the Week for Europe’s Top Five Leagues. Last weekend truly belonged to Osimhen, who further maintained his excellent start to the season with a one-man masterclass against Sassuolo.

Osimhen has now had a hand in six goals in his last four matches after coming back from a month out with a thigh injury in mid-October, and the player will be ruing the pause in club competition for the World Cup later this month.
