Naples, December 27, 2021 – While the Naples, comforted by the opinion of the doctors, he hastened to talk about a window of 3 months for complete recovery, obviously Victor Osimhen a separate countdown began which led him to respond to the summons of his National to dispute the Africa Cup of Nations: a choice decidedly not in line with the schedule drawn up by the Neapolitan club.
The week of truth
Table that foresees the decisive control for next Friday in the Campania capital to verify the situation just over a month after the very delicate operation on the face to which the attacker had been subjected, who instead left for the Nigeria to enjoy a few days of vacation. This at least is the official reason, but unofficially it cannot be ruled out that Wednesday Osimhen can present himself at the meeting of his representative, set for Abuja. And then? By the end of a hectic week to say the least (and full of those intercontinental journeys so ‘dear’ to Aurelio De Laurentiis) the tip should return to Naples to be visited by the surgeon who operated on him a little over a month ago: only at that point will it be possible to have a clearer picture of the actual chances of Osimhen to play a tournament that, in words, the Nigerian is already ‘playing’. In fact, in recent weeks via social media the class of ’98 is doing nothing but confirming its participation in the Africa Cup of Nations, strengthened by certainties that evidently do not exist yet and which on Friday could even vanish. With all due respect to a player who notoriously becomes more mischievous than usual these days: just think of the positivity to Covid-19 contracted last year due to the excessive partying made to celebrate the birthday.
The crossroads
The day (December 29th) is approaching inexorably and the Naples, which he has already lost again for the same reason Fabian Ruiz, trembles and crosses his fingers: another lightness in this sense, considering the storm already present for the gate-injury, would be unacceptable for the Neapolitan club, projected to the big match against Juventus scheduled for the resumption of the championship. Match in which, logically, Osimhen there will be no crossroads in front of you: either stay in the pits to continue your rehabilitation process or leave for the Cameroon to show off the miraculous mask that could allow him to return to the field well in advance of the initial schedule.
