Nigeria international Victor Osimhen will later today undergo more test on his knee which has been a source of concern for the forward the past two weeks.
Osimhen has been playing with the knock for two weeks with doctors hoping he won’t be needing surgery but it appears their projection isn’t working as expected.
The forward was seen leaving the pitch yesterday after Napoli’s 2-4 loss against Barcelona with a bandage on his right knee, same leg that he suffered the knock.
Per Sky Italia, Osimhen will in the next few hours undergo another round of test which will determine if he will be requiring surgery or not as it’s clear he has failed to shake it off as projected.
If he is to go under the knife, it could possibly mean he won’t be available for Nigeria when they take on Ghana in the playoff for the 2022 World Cup in March.
