Victor Osimhen Addresses Napoli Controversy
Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has released a statement addressing the controversy surrounding a TikTok video posted by the club’s social media account that appeared to mock him. In the statement, Osimhen expressed his love for Napoli and the people of Naples, and denied that the accusations against them were true. He said:
“Coming to the City of Naples in 2020 was a wonderful decision for me. The People of Napoli have shown me so much love and kindness, and I will not allow anyone to come between us.
