Serie A: Injured Osimhen ruled out of Napoli, AC Milan clash

Serie A leaders, Napoli will be without Victor Osimhen for Sunday’s league clash against champions, AC Milan.

Osimhen sustained an injury while on international duty with Nigeria this week and has missed training since returning to Naples.

Napoli revealed through a statement on their official website that the striker complained of an abductor strain upon his return, which was confirmed after he underwent tests.
