This is really a cheering news for we the osimhen faithful’s. Napoli had struggled and endured some torrid times in his absence and his return for the second leg fixtures portend some good news for his team mates and fans worldwide. Am tipping Napoli has the overwhelming favorite to qualify on aggregate.
It shows VM makes the team thick. Good news for Napoli.
I’m tipping Osimhen will make a defference to qualify Napoles to the next semi- final of UEFA Championship at Armando Maradona stadium in Napoles.
