He may be experiencing some difficulties in his performance in recent times Naplesbut o Victor Osimen is one of the top players in Italy, helping the “Partenopei” to win Serie A last year as the league’s top scorer.
The Nigerian spoke to Meso in Italy about the great difficulties and intense criticism he received before establishing himself in Napleswhile he referred to the love he has for his homeland but also to the bond of his team with him Diego Maradona.
In detail what he said:
On the criticism he has received in the past: “When I arrived at Napoli there were people who said I wouldn’t even score 4 goals because Serie A is a league based on strength. And so it is, but when you tell me I can’t do something, even if I don’t know it, I want to learn it to challenge those people. Those who said those things are now hiding.”
On whether he cares about fame: “Fame today means nothing to me, I don’t care. There are many famous people but their bank account is in the red. It’s not easy to show love in the world we live in, so when people come to me and show appreciation, thank me and tell me to keep it up, for me it’s a privilege.”
For his home country: “When I was little I only dreamed of becoming a footballer, the situation for my family was tough and I went to sell newspapers and water bottles. I love Lagos, when I have four days free I come here, I like to be in the world. I love everything, the stress, the vibes, the love, the jealousy.”
On Napoli’s strong bond with Diego Maradona: “Diego is for me the greatest player of all time, there won’t be anyone who can do anything at Napoli that can compare to what he did.”
