Udinese defender, Jaka Bijol, says Napoli’s Victor Osimhen gave him a tough time when their sides meet in the Serie A last time out.

Osimhen scored one of the goals as the Partenopei beat Udinese 3-2 at Diego Maradona’s Stadium on November 12.

The Nigerian also set up another goal for his teammate Piotr Zieliński during the thrilling clash regarded as one of the most entertaining game in the Serie A this season.

Bijol, the 23 year-old Slovenian defender, said Osimhen’s strength, gave him a difficult time all through the encounter.

“I had a difficult life in the last match against Napoli. Oshimen is a really strong striker. He is fast and knows how to move well,” Bijol told Tutton Napoli.

Osimhen has 10 goals in all competition for Serie A leaders Napoli this season.

The 23 year-old Nigerian forward was voted as the best young player at global soccer award in Dubai recently.
