What a stupid and unnecessary news, so if osimhen is not on the list, who should be there?
@Femi you are not following football?. The reason it is news is because they was fear he was injured after the recent match with Sassuolo he came of with an injury
A slight niggle.
Thumbs up brotherman Ugo. You are one of the few people who make me come here to comment on Nigerian football. Yes it was feared that Osimhen is injured. He is fine now.
Heaven bless Osimhen and all deserving Super Eagles players.
Well said bro. I do follow soccer but half fit VO will surely make Napoli squad at the moment.
