Osimhen: I am working hard to play in the Premier League

Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has openly declared he has his eyes on playing in the English Premier League, saying that he is working towards achieving the dream.

Osimhen, who was recently voted Best Foreign Athlete in Italy, has been commanding interests from some of the top clubs across Europe; especially in the EPL where there are reported interests from the likes of Manchester United Arsenal and Chelsea amongst many others.

The 24-year old has scored 19 goals in 21 appearances in the Serie A this season.

Though Osimhen is happy with his time at Napoli and Italy as a whole, he is ready to follow the footsteps of some of Nigeria’s legendary football stars who enjoyed glorious stints in the EPL.
