Osimhen, Onyekuru to clash in pre-season friendly

Victor Osimhem in training yesterday

Nigeria internationals  Victor Osimhen and  Henry Onyekuru  are expected in action as  Italian Serie A side Napoli  clash  with Turkish  side Adana Demirspor in a pre-season match  tonight.

Incidentally, Osimhen only  returned to training with Napoli yesterday, after coach Luciano Spalletti sent him off during a training session at the weekend.

The Napoli boss told Osimhen to “take a shower” during a training session at their Castel di Sangro preseason camp.

The 23-year-old was angered by a poor tackle from Napoli’s new signing Leo Ostigard but his unreserved complaints prompted Spalletti to send him out of training.

However, according to CalcioNapoli as per Gazzetta dello Sport, Osimhen has resumed training, and Napoli boss Spalletti quelled the tension in the team by speaking to the players.

Osimhen was all smiles during training showing peaceful ambiance  has since returned to  the team’s  camp.

The Partenopeans have already played two games in the preseason, emphatically beating Anaunia and Perugia and will be up against Adana Demirspor today.

Osimhen would look to outdo compatriot Onyekuru, who just joined the Turkish side this summer.
