Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, has removed all pictures associated with his Italian club, Napoli, from his Instagram account.
Osimhen’s action comes after Napoli shared a video mocking him over his penalty miss against Bologna.
The 24-year-old forward who has been battling difficult start to the new season, missed a penalty during his side’s goalless draw with Bologna.
He was then enraged after his manager Rudi Garcia substituted him, a development he later regretted and apologised for.

Following this, Roberto Calendar, the agent of Osimhen, said he “reserves the right to take legal action” against the club over “very serious damage to the player” caused by the video.
Amid the saga, Osimhen has removed all images related to Napoli from his Instagram page in what appeared to be a response to Napoli over the video mocking him.
The saga has generated reactions among Nigerians calling upon him to leave the club as he is yet to sign a new deal with Napoli despite talks ongoing since the end of the 2022/23 season.
