Super Eagles Nigeria striker, Victor Osimhen, has made history by becoming the first Nigerian to finish eight position in Ballon d’or shortlist.
The 24-year-old Napoli talismanic striker finished eighth position in the 30-man shortlist.
Roberto Calenda, the agent of Osimhen, is on cloud nine after his client’s remarkable Ballon d’Or achievement.
Calenda took to social media to celebrate the Nigeria international.
“8th in Ballon d’Or ranking!You made history and the future is yours…Victor is coming!!!
Congrats @victorosimhen9,” he wrote on his X handle.
It’s also best result ever for a Napoli player, given that the previous record belonged to Ruud Krol, who ended 15th in 1980.
