Napoli attacker Victor Osimhen is determined to leave a lasting impression on Nigeria in the ongoing 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) held in Ivory Coast. The 25-year-old has been in stellar form, contributing significantly to the Super Eagles’ progression to the quarter-finals under the guidance of coach Jose Peseiro.
Osimhen’s remarkable skills were on full display during the intense last-16 clash against Cameroon. He tormented the Cameroonian defense and played a pivotal role in setting up Ademola Lookman for Nigeria’s crucial opening goal. Despite scoring just once in the AFCON so far, Osimhen is eager to contribute more and make his mark on the tournament.
In an interview with The Guardian UK’s reporter, Osasu Obayiuwana, Osimhen emphasized his desire to achieve something meaningful with the talented Nigerian squad. He expressed, “I want to give Nigeria something that they will always remember. I am fully committed to bringing home the [AFCON] trophy and will give my all to make it happen.”
As Nigeria prepares to face Angola in the quarter-finals, Osimhen will undoubtedly play a crucial role in leading his team to victory. With his exceptional form and unwavering determination, the Super Eagles can rely on Osimhen to be their driving force as they strive to lift the prestigious AFCON trophy.
