Osimhen Excluded from Serie A Squad and Stripped of Iconic Number 9 Jersey

In a dramatic turn of events, Napoli has excluded Victor Osimhen from their Serie A squad list, dealing a significant blow to the Nigerian striker.

Furthermore, Osimhen will no longer don the iconic number 9 jersey, as it has been reassigned to Romelu Lukaku with immediate effect.

This decisive move comes on the heels of Osimhen’s failed attempts to force a transfer away from the Italian club.

As a result, he will not be part of Napoli’s first-team squad, with Lukaku now being coach Antonio Conte’s preferred choice. Osimhen’s chances of playing will be limited to situations where Lukaku is unavailable.

This development marks a significant shift in Osimhen’s fortunes at Napoli, leaving his future with the club uncertain.
