Osimhen needs time to pick up form, Mazzarri urges Napoli fans

Napoli’s head coach, Walter Mazzarri, is calling for patience from the fans as Victor Osimhen strives to rediscover his form following a six-week injury hiatus.

Despite playing in three recent matches against Atalanta, Real Madrid, and Inter Milan, the striker has yet to find the back of the net.

Osimhen is set to start in the upcoming clash against the Old Lady on Friday, with Mazzarri expressing confidence that the striker will regain his scoring prowess with time.

“Osimhen obviously needs time to find his best form, also in terms of physical conformation,” the gaffer was quoted by the club’s official website.

“But it’s clear that even if he wasn’t at one hundred per cent, he can still give me great guarantees for the strength he knows how to express, even for portions of matches like has done so far after returning “. He said.

Despite his recent drought, Osimhen still leads Napoli’s league scorers chart with six goals this season.
