‘Osimhen reminds me of Cavani' – Agent backs Super Eagle to shine for Napoli

Agent Andrea D’Amic is confident Victor Osimhen will impress at Napoli, comparing him to Edinson Cavani.

The 22-year-old arrived at Stadio San Paolo last summer as the club’s record signing following his eye-catching performances for French side Lille.

The forward’s debut season has, however, been marred by injury, suspension and coronavirus related problems, which have limited his game time to 16 league matches, scoring five goals.

D’Amic, who played a role in the attacker’s move to the Parthenopeans, believes the striker will eventually do well, comparing him to Cavani, who struggled initially before he went on to score 104 goals in 138 games for the club after fully settling in.
