And some people will be here lamenting over saka, olise and eze when we have oshimen, ejuke, chukwueze, awoniyi, aina, kalu, desser, assist king , Moses Simon, best defensive midfielder in England, ndidi, o e if th fastest growing central midfielder in England, onyeka, one of the best passer of the ball , iwobi, the best goal keeper in Holland last season, okoye, one of the most productive attacker in England last season, iheanacho and more.
Never lament when any player say they are blnit playing for us.
I have not even talked about lookman and ejaria, bassey zaidu.
Nice one @ CMN.THUMBS UP MAN.I keep saying these players need Nigeria more than Nigeria need them. Please everytime I say Nigeria, it doesn’t include those thieves calling themselves politicians oooo. They are mere criminals doing everything they can to bring down NIGERIA.
The two clubs are not serious, if over hyped grealish cost 100 Napoli should only talk when they have 150
what are they negotiating again?? i’m very sure if Osimhen happened to be a white guy, we should be looking at 130m ponds…Imaging that Sacho boy, even that man with Yam legs grealish who does not merit the amount they placed on them…Osimhen worth more than that 93m ponds o.
Having said that, Man United should steer clear Osimhen biko, i only want in in Manchester City or Realmadrid.
You are a real toad oh. Just joking TOD, you say that guy is yam-leg, haba, he dey try nah. very funny. Stay blessed broda… Regards always
Both Manchester club dnt impress me when it come to recruiting African players, Liverpool, Real Madrid and Barcelona would be more appealing if I’m to choose for VO.
Waooo! That’s a big jackpot! Being the biggest and one of the most supported clubs in the World, the Red Devil as ManU is popularly called is an idea destination for any player. However, I see transfers as a central component in football, with the biggest clubs in the World exchanging mind-boggling sums of money in order to sign the players they so believe in. Osigoaaaals with ManU calling has the rare opportunity to further propagate his potentials at the global stage, showcasing those innate attributes that saw him triumph right from his playing days in Germany en-routing France before belting @ his present location, Italy. He is just 22yrs with the will to rule the World and the future at his beck and call, this I think is the reason there is the mad rush to have him in the biggest football team. I would rather he thinks less of the monetary offer since he still has time on his palms. We must be mindful of the fact that too many world renowned players and soccer pundits have so talked much about him in recent time, I mean in glorious terms.

No stress but please always ascribe ‘copy’ when referencing someone’s post. You just lifted my comment. Thanks though.
Ernie and TOD, you guys are not making any sense. Napoli already said how much they would want to receive as transfer fee for them to entertain any negotiation but you guys are here suggesting that the price V.O out of any potential move.
Do you guys really know how transfer work?
No player worth more than what his current team want from a potential suitor as transfer fee for that particular player. With that said, our beloved Osimhem does not worth more that what Napoli said they want as transfer fee for his transfer. One thing you also should know is that Napoli knows that by the end of negotiations, they will be receiving less that the £93m .
You guys are being unrealistic.
Please stop with the lies. I read a lot of football news from different sources, non of them say this. If you only get your news from completesports, I pity you if you believe this. Before he went to napoli, united, chelsea, juventus and inter milan wanted him, possibly more
You will never see Victor Osimen wearing earrings like some of his ilks, so cool, nice hair cut and such a simple guy. Very determined and a team player. I would rather he joins MancityFC. Top flight premiership club it is Victor, go for 200mill pounds, you worth it.
Rapheal onyedika is maturing into a fine central midfielder.
The boy might just be a major assest for Nigeria.
I watched some of his video clips and I was impressed.
He has good height, good ball control, great passing especially long passing, good skills. All he needs now is experience and exposure which he is getting at his Norwegian club.
But I tell you if he continues to improve he will be sold to a bigger club in no time at all.
