Serie A champions, Napoli have released Victor Osimhen for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
Osimhen is celebrating his 25th birthday today. The forward is suspended for Napoli’s league clash with Monza today and that has prompted his early release for the 2023 AFCON finals.
Recall that Osimhen picked a red card in the Partenopei’s 2-0 defeat to AS Roma last week.
The striker, who is expected to be named in Super Eagles’ squad for Cote d’Ivoire 2023, will link up with his international teammates in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates on January 1.
