Due to a thigh injury, Victor Osimhen, a striker for Napoli, will miss the Italian team’s match against Spezia on Saturday.
The Nigerian forward received the injury during the first half of Wednesday’s 4-1 thrashing of Liverpool in Naples, according to a statement from Napoli. Four minutes before halftime of the Champions League victory at the Stadio Maradona, the 23-year-old was replaced by recently signed Giovanni Simeone. Osimhen is anticipated to miss the remainder of this month’s international break at the very least. He will almost definitely also miss their match against title rivals AC Milan the following Sunday as well as their Champions League trip to Scottish club Rangers the following week.
