Nigerian striker, Victor Osimhen, seems not to be interested in taking penalty kicks again for Napoli after a now infamous series of TikToks were posted to the club’s social media channels in recent weeks.
Since the incident, Napoli have played three matches and been awarded penalties in every one of those games, yet Osimhen has not taken any of them.
Recall that Super Eagles Nigeria forward had been left furious after two seemingly insulting videos were posted to the club’s TikTok account, one of which had mocked him as begging for a penalty then his miss from the spot in a Serie A match against Bologna at the end of September.
The videos caused an uproar for Osimhen and his supporters worldwide, eventually leading to the departure of one of Napoli’s social media executives.
