Osimhen rounds up pre-season in style with Napoli

Victor Osimhen was the star as Napoli finished their pre-season campaign with a 4-0 win over Pescara at Castel di Sangro.

The Super Eagles attacker scored the opening goal to end his pre-season campaign with eight goals from five games.

Osimhen opened his pre-season campaign with four goals in Napoli’s thrashing of Anaunia before scoring the winner against Pro Vercelli.

He took it a level higher with a brace in the 3-0 thrashing of Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena. His strike against Pescara is the cherry on the cake of what has been a fantastic pre-season under Luciano Spalletti.

Osimhen will now hope to carry his form into the new Serie A season, which begins next weekend. Napoli take on newly-promoted Venezia in their first match, and that could see Osimhen come up against his international compatriots, Tyronne Ebuehi and David Okereke.
