Guiseppe Osvaldo, the ex-Napoli striker has praised Super Eagles player, Victor Osimhen for his impressive performance for Napoli this season, especially for his beautiful header at Napoli’s 3-0 win at Spezia this weekend.
Osimhen broke Ronaldo’s famous 256cm header against Sampdoria in 2019, with his 258cm header as he scored the second goal in Napoli’s win against Spezia.
Speaking on this, Guiseppe said that Osimhen is a very good player, as he is calculative and knows how to find the perfect timing for the headers, and he can move his body very swiftly.
He further commended the player for possessing impressive qualities, who has good technique, good speed, and can calculate good times for headers.
He further predicted that Osimhen is going to be one of the greatest strikers in the world.
“Did I see myself again in Osimhen’s header against Spezia? Well a little, but the Nigerian is very good,” Savoldi was quoted by Tutto Napoli.
He knows how to find the perfect timing for the headers. He has great elevation, it didn’t surprise me, we’re used to these goals by now
“Osimhen has incredible qualities, he manages to break evenly, a rare thing. He’s already a complete striker, he has good technique and speed, and he has time in the header.
“And he can still improve in the game with his back to goal when the opponents rely on him.
“He’s still very young he can only get better, he will become one of the strongest in the world.”
No doubt from the way Osimhen is going, he is currently one of the most sought strikers in the world, with every EPL team eyeing to have the player on their side, he currently has 16 goals in 17 league appearances for Napoli this season.
