Nigerians have once again called for Victor Osimhen to leave Napoli after latest comments by the agent of teammate Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Osimhen signed a contract extension with Napoli until 2026 after a stellar 12 months in Naples.
Despite putting pen to paper, speculation has continued to surround the 25-year-old, with a potential move away on the cards in the summer.

Osimhen angry in Napoli
Khvicha kvaratskhelia's agent, Mamuka Jugeli, stoked the fire by stating openly in an interview that Osimehn will leave Napoli at the end of the season.
"Victor signed a new contract, but do you really think he will spend his entire career at Napoli?" declared Jugeli, via Fabrizio Romano
"I can already tell you he will go to Saudi Arabia next summer," he added.
The African Player of the Year took to his social media page to blast Khvicha’s agent, telling him to get his name out of his mouth.
"Dear Mamuka Jugeli, you are a piece of filth and a disgrace, I'm embarrassed at your sense of reasoning," raged Osimhen on his Instagram stories.

Nigerians also slammed the agent and pleaded with Osimhen to leave Napoli for his own good.
One user wrote on X, "Osimhen must leave Napoli, they no longer respect him"
Another wrote, "I think it's high time Victor found a better club, maybe Arsenal"
They are always trying to bring him down just to promote that Georgian Stanley Okoro
