The Super Eagle still has five games to equal his personal best achieved during his time at Lille
Victor Osimhen could not equal his personal record having failed to score in Napoli’s 1-1 draw with AS Roma in Monday’s Serie A fixture.
Prior to the game played at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium, the Nigeria international was one goal short of matching his record of goals scored in a single European league season.
During the 2019-20 season at Lille, Osimhen found the net on 13 occasions - a feat that inspired his move to the Italian elite division giants.
However, he could not add to his 12-goal tally in the 2021-22 campaign despite his presence for 82 minutes before he was subbed off for Dries Mertens.
Still hurt by their 3-2 home defeat to Fiorentina, Luciano Spalletti’s team welcomed the Yellow and Reds to Naples for their 150th Derby del Sole.
Although Jose Mourinho’s side started on a positive note, it was the hosts who took the lead after 11 minutes as Roger Ibanez fouled a goal-bound Hirving Lozano.
