Victor Osimhen's agent, William D’Avila believes the forward can be the leading scorer in the Serie A next season.

The 22-year-old striker has maintained fitness and has scored five goals for Napoli in recent weeks.

Osimhen also played a key role in Tuesday night’s 5-1 home win against Udinese which put the Blues in good position to secure a top-four place.

He has so far netted 10 times in 22 league appearances this season and has been tipped to surpass the achievements of former Napoli forwards Edison Cavani and Gonzalo Higuain, says complete sports.

Asked in an exclusive chat with calcionapoli if his client will be ready to fight to become the top scorer in Serie A next season, D’Avilla responded: “Of course he will! Get ready.

“He is in love with the city and the Neapolitans! Everyone is very kind to him and he already feels at home.

Napoli manager Gennaro Gattuso fought hard to bring Osimhen to the club after his impressive campaign in Ligue 1 with Lille.

The pair seems to enjoy a perfect relationship and D”Avilla believes their personalities are perfectly matched.

“It depends on technical factors as they understand each other very well as far as things on the pitch are concerned, but their personalities are perfectly matched as well,”he added.

“Victor has a great respect for Gattuso.”
