Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen will undergo surgery today after he fractured to his cheekbone and eye socket in Napoli’s 3-2 defeat by Inter Milan on Sunday.
The 22-year-old, who is Napoli’s top scorer this season with nine goals in 14 appearances, was substituted in the 52nd minute following a nasty clash of heads with Inter’s Milan Skriniar.
The defeat by Inter was Napoli’s first of the league season and the potential long-term absence of Osimhen comes as a blow to their quest for a third Serie A title.
