“Osimhen Is Not a Champion and Only Had One Good Season” — Flores says
Former Italy U-21 striker, Antonio Floro Flores, has taken a swipe at Super Eagles star Victor Osimhen, calling him an average player. Speaking with Kiss Kiss Napoli, Flores didn’t hold back, saying Osimhen should take his football career to Saudi Arabia and stop the noise.
Osimhen, who joined Napoli in 2020, helped the club win the Serie A title after a 33-year wait. However, he was loaned to Galatasaray last season, sparking mixed reactions about his future. Despite interest from top European clubs, Flores believes Osimhen has done little to earn the hype.
“Osimhen? He should go to Saudi Arabia. I’m honestly tired of hearing his name,” Flores said. “I get irritated when people talk about him like he’s some big star. He had only one good season. This is someone who turned his back on the city that made him famous. Even his own mother didn’t know him before Napoli.
“He even removed Napoli from his Instagram like he’s done something special. If I was his agent, I would’ve sent him to Saudi Arabia already. He’s not a champion, and I doubt he even realises it.”
Coventry City manager, Frank Lampard, speaks on team player and states how the player’s stance will help the team get into the Premier League.
The player is revealed to be Onyeka who he spoke about in the recent interview.

“As I say, the profile is slightly different and I think that helps us in terms of the options and the competition in the middle of the park for us.”

Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.
He shared that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is hopeful about hearing from them after they submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
“I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
