Head coach of Napoli Luciano Spalletti is pleased to see club record signing Victor Osimhen get back among the goals after a lengthy absence due to a facial injury.
Osimhen scored his tenth goal in 17 games in all competitions with the second goal for Napoli in their 2-0 win over Venezia taking them back to second spot on the Serie A table.
Spalletti says the Nigeria international striker has it in him to score more goals before the end of the season if the team plays to his strength as seen in the move that led to the header he scored yesterday.
“He has the qualities”, Spalletti told DAZN. We have to improve in serving him, not always dribble and not put the defenders in a position to defend on his qualities. In the first half we played too much on the feet and little in space forcing him to have the entire opposing team around”, he explained.
The coach will be hoping Osimhen keeps his scoring run going when they take on league leaders Inter Milan who are currently one point ahead of them on the Serie A log.
