No malice at all towards anyone, including young Victor Osimhen whom I was a big fan of in his early days.
But the truth is that in life, humility and loyalty, not blind loyalty tends to serve individuals well.
Everyone has something to say about Victor’s transfer wether knowledgeable about football business or not. Go enjoy your time in Turkey VICTOR!
The truth remains that Victor committed no offense other than being a nigerian.
Napoli, will not an Arab like that or an American.
It is what happens to you abroad when you are a nigerian.
Galatasaray to the rescue!
Let’s hope he hit the ground running at Gala!
Turkish league is another terrible league, he needs to be banging in the goals otherwise .. .
Osi has his work cut out for him.
I truly wish him all the best!
At the end of the loan deal, I hope he’ll get a club that will cough out close to 80m Euro to secure his transfer from Napoli.
