Serie A: Osimhen, Lookman, Dessers and Okereke listed for matchday 16 as Ola Aina goes missing

Published on: 04 January 2023

Napoli will resume their fight to win the league for the first time in thirty-two years when they take on former champion Inter Milan at the San Siro today.

The Parthenopeans left the city of Naples yesterday. And on the plan is Nigeria international Victor Osimhen and 24 other players. The Super striker will be expected to pick a starting shirt later tonight at Giuseppe Meazza.

Somewhere else in Lombardy are two Nigeria striker Cyril Desser and David Okereke who also made the squad for Cremonese ahead of their big tie against Juventus at home.

One of the strikers will be expected to lead the attack or even the two as Cremonese is yet to win a game this season scoring just 11 goals in 15 league games.

Also, Coach Gianpero Gasparini will be counting in another Nigeria forward, Ademola Lookman as La Dea play Spezia away from home. Look in the league this season has scored seven goals and has been unsurprisingly been listed for tie along side another Nigeria descent, defender Okoli Caleb.

Meanwhile, Super Eagles fullback Ola Aina will be missing in action when Torino host Verona later this afternoon. The Torino defender is reported to be injured amidst his transfer speculations.
