Victor Osimhen is presently the hottest striker in European football.

The Napoli striker scored 19 club goals last season and has bagged two this term, but the Serie A side have slapped an £102million price tag on him.

Victor Osimhen missed nine games at the end of 2021 due to a nasty injury but has come back looking to make an impact on the Champions League and Serie A this term.

Victor Osimhen, 23, fractured his eye socket during Napoli’s 3-2 defeat at Inter Milan on November 24, 2021.

That was one of many facial fractures he suffered after a clash of heads with Milan Skriniar at the San Siro.

Victor Osimhen had 18 metal screws and six plaques inserted to stabilise his facial features following the horror injury.

Victor returned to action for Napoli’s 2-0 win at Bologna in Serie A on January 17, 2022 and was wearing a carbon fibre mask.

He originally found the mask irritating but has slowly become used to the protective item.

The Nigerian continued to use the mask in the 2022-23 season, sporting it during the 4-1 win over Liverpool.
