The Seria A title race is looking more interesting, thanks to the brilliant efforts of youngsters like Milan’s Rafael Leao, Juve’s Dusan Vlahovic and Roma’s Tammy Abraham, and Napoli’s new signing Kvicha Kvaratskhelia.
However, it’s Nigeria’s Victor Osimhen that has been sensational in the rumbling 2022-2023 campaign, having helped Napoli secure a spot at the top of the league with whopping 41 points.
Super Eagles forward is more than a lethal attacker, he provides a strong cover for the Naples side with a dominant presence that is giving defenders a nightmare.
Although he did not start the season due to injury, the 23-year-old forward has been integral to Napoli’s current success run with nine (9) goals in eleven (11) games so far.
Osimhen also has two blistering assists to himself with a fair play record of one yellow card. The attacker is renowned for his imposing frame, lightning-fast turn of pace, good finishing and movement.
He scored 14 goals and 5 assists last season. His 9 goals this season means the striker will make a huge difference in Napoli’s pursuit of glory.
Similarly, Osimhen’s kinsman, Ademola Lookman, has also taken the league by storm with a domineering performance that has put him up front as a leading contender in the Golden Boot race.
The winger joined Atalanta this season from Leicester City and has cemented himself as one of the stars to look up to in the league.
In just 15 matches, Lookman, 25, has scored 7 goals and earned one assist as Atalanta sits comfortably in the 6th position in the league behind former champions Inter Milan with 27 points.
