Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen is expected back in Naples on Wednesday, after resolving his feud with brother-in-law, according to Italian sources, Il Mattino and Corriere della Sera.

Osimhen had been in Lagos recuperating from an injury he sustained during Nigeria’s international friendly game against the Green Falcons of Saudi Arabia in Portugal.

“Osimhen will return to Naples after the two weeks spent in Nigeria with the club’s authorization to keep up with the latest, complex family events.

“He had an agreement with Napoli, and the doctors and club trainers sent him his recovery programme and had been doing that while in Lagos.”

“He is fine now, and has resolved his personal issues with his sister and brother-in-law in a legal case in Lagos, over the sum he collected from him (brother-in-law), following his transfer to Napoli from Lille, and he announced his return to Naples on Wednesday.”

Meanwhile, Osimhen, who recently emerged as the 8th best player in the world in the 2023 Ballon D’Or, will be in the stands to cheer his teammates on in the Champions League game against Union Berlin at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.
