Napoli’s striker, Victor Osimhen, had to exit the club’s training session on Tuesday due to a right ankle injury.

According to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, Osimhen left Napoli’s training during a practice match following a collision with new signing Natan de Souza. The impact left him with a strong blow to his right ankle.

Clearly in pain, Osimhen hobbled off the field and immediately applied an ice pack to his injured ankle.

An initial assessment indicates that he sustained an ankle sprain, which shouldn’t sideline him for an extended period.

In a recent development, Osimhen had been absent from Napoli’s second-to-last pre-season game against Augsburg on Sunday due to a muscle strain. He had just recuperated from this injury.

Despite ongoing speculation of a high-profile departure from Napoli this summer, Osimhen appears inclined to sign a new contract, despite tempting offers from Saudi Arabia.

Last season, the 24-year-old Nigerian forward was the standout performer for the Partenopei, scoring 26 goals in 32 league games, which greatly contributed to the team’s first Scudetto win in 33 years.
