Napoli Boss Mazzarri: Osimhen Needs Time to Rediscover Best Form

Napoli manager Walter Mazzarri has supported Victor Osimhen, stating that the striker requires time to regain his top form.

Osimhen, who recently recovered from a hamstring injury, hasn’t scored in his last three matches for the Serie A champions.

Napoli experienced mixed results in these three games, securing one victory and suffering two defeats.

“Osimhen obviously needs time to find his best form, also in terms of physical conformation,” the manager was quoted by the club’s official website.

“But it’s clear that even if he wasn’t at one hundred percent, he can still give me great guarantees for the strength he knows how to express, even for portions of matches like has done so far after returning .”

The 24-year-old has netted six goals in 10 Serie A appearances for Napoli this season. The team is set to face Juventus in their upcoming league match at the Allianz Arena on Friday.
