Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has criticized the TikTok video mocking Victor Osimhen, calling it racist and not a joke.
Osimhen has been a top player in European football in recent years, scoring many goals for Napoli and helping them win the Serie A.
Osimhen has shown great dedication, even playing with a mask after suffering facial fractures. Napoli hasn’t had the best start this season, winning only four out of their first seven games in Serie A. Currently, they are in third place as they try to defend their title.

Thierry Henry, Arsenal legend, has shared his thoughts on the Osimhen and Napoli controversy. He spoke during a pre-game discussion on CBS Sports and strongly criticized Napoli’s video, calling it racist. He couldn’t comprehend why the club would create such a video.
In his words, he said, “This is just wrong in every way. I want to address your question because you don’t like it when I don’t answer your question.
But seriously, what are we even discussing here?” Henry expressed his disapproval of the situation.
