Osimhen to return first week in October
There are indications of an early return to action for injured Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen.

 

According to reports monitored on Italian famous website, TuttoNapoli.net, the goal poacher could be in coach Luciano Spalletti’s starting XI when they take on Cremonese on October 9.

 

The player suffered a hamstring injury in Napoli’s 4-1 trouncing of Liverpool on September 7 and was ruled out of Napoli’s last three games before the international break.

 

It also put him out of contention for a place in Jose Peseiro’s squad for the Super Eagles’ international friendly game against Algeria next week Tuesday in Oran.

 

The web reported that, the masked Super Eagles marksman could be available for Napoli’s Champions League clash against Ajax, albeit he could get just a few minutes.

 

However, he would be ready for full action when the Partenopeans travel to Cremonese on the 9th of October.

 

Other things being equal, the tie will see Osimhen match up against compatriots Cyriel Dessers, David Okereke, and Emmanuel Aiwu.
