• Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has been tipped by Matteo Bonetti to score 25 goals this season for Napoli
• Osimhen scored 14 Serie A goals last season for the Italian side and has so far netted four times this term
• The 23-year-old is also expected to lead the attack for the Super Eagles in coming games against Costa Rica and Portugal

Matteo Bonetti, who is an Italian football pundit, has backed Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen to do well this season for Napoli in all competitions, claiming he has been impressed with his games.

Osimhen is the man of the moment, as his goal gave coach Luciano Spalletti and his wards a 1-0 win over Roma in their last league game.

Many fans around the world were glad to see the Nigerian score the winner for Napoli from a tight angle.

Some are even of the opinion that Osimhen is currently better than Haaland, Robert Lewandowski and even Karim Benzema, who recently won the Ballon d'Or.

According to the report on GOAL, Bonetti stated that Osimhen can net 25 goals this term for Napoli in Serie A if he stays fit and healthy.

Bonetti's remarks on Osimhen

''Osimhen has not had a full season; he has gotten injured in every season he has been at Napoli. If he can stay healthy for an entire season, he is a 25-goal-per-season striker. But it is just more of the danger that he puts into the defence.”

Napoli place price tag on Osimhen

Earlier, Sports Brief had reported how Italian side Napoli have set a €100million price tag on Nigerian international Victor Osimhen, as rumours circulate about Chelsea's interest in the striker.

President of the Serie A outfit Aurelio de Laurentiis is reportedly prepared to let the forward leave, but only for the set price.

It is believed the 23-year-old will not leave the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium for anything less than the staggering figure.

Osimhen has been on the transfer radar for several months, with a number of English Premier League clubs jostling for his signature.

During the summer, teams like Arsenal, Manchester United and Newcastle United were all linked with the former Lille man, who bagged 18 goals for Napoli last season.
