Napoli coach Luciano Spalletti spoke about the situation with Victor Osimhen. The striker missed the game due to injury, but this did not affect the victory of the Azzurri, who won three points and took another step towards winning the Scudetto.
Osimhen returned to Napoli with an injury with Nigeria and missed the previous match with Milan, which Napoli lost 0-4. He is now a big question mark for the Champions League quarter-final first leg against the Rossoneri.
“Osimhen is a footballer who would play in every match. There is nothing controversial about it, but that is why doctors and we must be careful with it. If he had played with Lecce, it would have been worse. We need to give him more time to recover,” Spalletti shared.
“After the injury, he trained easily, but it remains to be seen how the injury will respond to the heavy loads,” the Napoli coach added.
