Former captain and coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Sunday Oliseh says the manner which Victor Osimhen took his goal against Bologna reminds him of legendary Nigerian forward Rashidi Yekini.
Osimhen sealed his return to action for Napoli with a well taken strike in their 3-1 win over Bologna. His pace, strength and composure to finish off a through pass made Oliseh to compare him to Yekini.
“ This just reminds me of the goal king, Rashidi Yekini. Victor Osimhen is full of potential”, Oliseh posted on Twitter in reaction to a video on the goal scored by Osimhen against Bologna.

Yekini remains Nigeria senior national team all time top scorer with 38 goals and for Osimhen to meet up to his count he has to improve on his current number of four goals in eight senior games for Nigeria.
