Victor Osimhen, Be wise, leave Napoli now.If you don’t, you might regret it
@ Obest. Good you said he MIGHT, so it’s a 50/50 chance. Meaning he might regret leaving as well. So for me better he takes the already known 50 chance. For THE DEVIL YOU KNOW IS BETTER THAN THE SAINT YOU DONT KNOW. As big as Messi, he is regretting leaving Barca. You can become an identity of a top team like Napoli and go on to reap huge benefits not only for yourself but also for your family/friends after retirement instead of being a travelling reveller . Drogba today is almost everything you talk about Chelsea. THAT IS MASSIVE. BUT ALL BEING SAID, OSIMENE HAS THE FINAL SAY. HE HAS THE ABILITY TO PLAY ANYWHERE AND WILL ALWAYS GET MY SUPPORT IRRESPECTIVE OF WHERE HE CHOOSE TO PLAY.
Thumbs up Brotherman Glory. Osihmen will be wise not to rush…..
Glory, you make a valid point.
However, if a top club comes knocking on the door, it will be hard for me to advise him not to go!
Having said that, Napoli has been great for him. So as you said, he must weigh the decision to leave very carefully.
If he must leave not to PSG unless if messi and imbape can both leave the club. Not man united because they are always not patience with black players. The day you under perform that will completely erase your interest in their minds.
Real Madrid or Bayern should be your target. The experience you have acquired in Seria is similar to what you will need in both Spain and Germany.
Napoli is where Osihmen belongs.
Just for helping them win the scudetto this year alone, he is already a Napoli legend.
Thumbs up Pompeiman.
@Pompei. You have a great mind. You are wise too. Thankyou bro.
Thanks Edoman. With a talent like Osimhen, Nigeria needs to win something big in football. Otherwise, we would have wasted this great talent.
Its better to leave when the ovation is highest….. Looking at osimhen and his club career you will notice that osimhen does not linger in a single club for long and it has helped him grow……Many advised him to stay at Charleroi for one more season and see if he can develop further but he took his chance with Lille and it paid off….. Many advised him to stay at Lille for one more season and replicate his first season wonder in France but he jumped at the first train to Napoli……It took him 3 good seasons to final get the attention he needs to move higher from Napoli and thank God he finally got the attention of world football again this season and some people are starting to advise him again to stay…… Haba!…… Osimhen will be going against his career growth if he doesn’t leave Napoli now that he is hot……Every person has a pattern of destiny and it’s only wise to identify your pattern of destiny fulfilment and flow with that trend……AM SURE OSIMHEN KNOWS THIS ALREADY.
Leave Osimene alone. He is to stay in Napoli for the time being. The prayer is for Taiwo Awoniyi to join him in Napoli. They will make a deadly strike force.
If osimhen makes the mistake of going cold in Napoli then he has derailed his career…..he will end up like Insigne or Mentens in Turkey league or MLS at most…..Mark my words…..I trust Napoli for that.
Osimhen is a Napoli legend.
Rumour has it that anywhere he goes in Napoli, he doesn’t have to pay for his food and drink ever again. No restaurant will charge him a dime.
Some are even offering him their daughters for marriage. They are even suggesting that he should replace Gaetano Manfredi as the next mayor of Naples.
They will soon name a street after him.
If Napoli love osimhen this much then they should allow him move on and fullfil his destiny…..Napoli should get a very handsome transfer fee on Osimhen and allow him move on…..Napoli is just a stepping stone for Osimhen in his blossoming glorious career……I know Napoli wants to have him forever in their club but Osimhen is destined for greater things in world football….. Osimhen has paid Napoli more than enough of what they spent on him but it would be greedy if Napoli wants make him stay against his will….. Football is cruel at times and I know it’s cruel to Napoli to lose a player like osimhen but Osimhen’s development and destiny is greater than Napoli’s Ambitions and plans……world football needs to witness Osimhen’s prowess in the highest level of Football playing for the elites of world football….I want to see Osimhen coming toe to toe with Vinicius jnr,Rodrigo,Halaand,De Brunna,Rudiga,Lewandoski and co season on season,…..I want to see Osimhen playing in the UCL final season on season…..I want to see Osimhen win the African footballer of the year 5 times in a row……I want to see Osimhen nominated for the Balon d’or on a regular basis.
Osimene has to stay in Napoli for more experience. They can buy Awoniyi to partner him. Awoniyi is the best.
