Victor Osimhen has been named among the best eleven players in the Italian Serie A last weekend round of games in Italy when he made his debut for Napoli.
The 21 year old didn’t get to score in the game which his team won 2-0 but his performance was largely seen as the reason why Napoli were able to crack a resolute Parma defence.
Italian Football TV picked the Nigerian in their team of the week ahead of Juventus star Cristiano Ronaldo who scored one of Juventus three goals in their 3-0 win over Sampdoria.
The players were selected after the first round of games in the new Serie A season which started over the weekend and ended yesterday with one game involving AC Milan against Bologna.
Osimhen was picked in attack alongside Zlatan Ibrahimovic of AC Milan who scored a brace yesterday in a 2-0 win over Bologna. Osimhen was the only Napoli player named in the team of the week despite playing for just 35 minutes.
