Osimhen Must Continue To Improve – Napoli Manager Gattuso

Napoli manager Gennaro Gattuso has urged Victor Osimhen to continue with his eye-catching performances for the club.

The 21-year-old forward has been turning heads for the Parthenopeans since his big-money move from French side Lille in July.

The striker bagged an eight-minute hat-trick in their pre-season friendly against L’Aquila and continued his fine start to life at Stadio San Paolo against Teramo.

Gattuso, who has been impressed with the centre-forward, has advised the Super Eagles star not to soft-pedal on his form as he hopes he will replicate his pre-season performances when the 2020-21 campaign gets underway.

“Osimhen is a quiet guy who has to work a lot. He has a lot of physicalities, but he doesn’t have to be satisfied,” Gattuso told Radio Kiss Kiss.

“The goals he scores right now don’t count for anything, but he fits in very well with the team. He jokes with everyone and makes himself loved.”
