The striker thanked everyone who ensured his quick return.

Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen has made a swift return to training, after suffering a facial injury in a league game in the Italian Serie A.

Osimhen suffered a left cheekbone and orbital fracture in Napoli’s Serie A clash against Inter Milan on November 21.Speaking after the successful surgery, the operating doctor, Gianpaolo Tartaro, revealed how and what had to be done to repair the extensive facial injury suffered by the Nigerian striker.

The surgeon revealed the striker required ‘six plaques and 18 screws’ to repair the ‘devastating’ damage. He said: “Osimhen’s injury was not just a simple fracture to the cheekbone, as it involved many other bones in his face. “It wasn’t an impact injury, it was one of compression. The kinetic force generated by the crushing of Osimhen’s face against the back of Skriniar’s head did devastating damage.While reports had suggested Osimhen would be out of action for as long as 90 days, ‘The Lion’ as he is fondly called by some of his fans has made a swift return to training in a little over two weeks.
