Osimhen: "we were ready for Juve"

’s forward, 

admitted that at first, he had doubts about moving to Italy but

Gennaro Gattuso

and current Napoli’s owner,

Aurelio De Laurentiis

contacted and persuaded him to join the club.

“At first, I was a bit afraid of coming to Italy, not Naples in particular,”

he said

“Before I had even signed, the fans showed me a lot of love when I arrived. It was easy for me to make this decision.”

“It’s a dream come true for me because I watched him play and to play for Gattuso is a great satisfaction.

“I can grow as a player and a man, and I’m sure I will improve.”

Last week, an important match between

and

Napoli

was scheduled to take place in Turin, but the corona test of two Napoli players was positive, and for this reason, the Naples City Health Organization did not issue a permit for the team's convoy to travel to Turin.

The disciplinary committee of the Italian Football Federation announced the result of this match 3-0 in favor of Juventus.

Osimhen believes the decision is not fair:

“I don’t know, but there’s the COVID situation. That’s why we couldn’t travel,”

“We were charged for the match, then we were blocked by the COVID rules.

“It’s a bit unfair, the decision they made later.”
