Super Eagles and Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen, appreciates the support of coach Luciano Spalletti, reports BSNSports.com.ng.

The Nigerian struck in Saturday's 2-0 win against Empoli to equal Cristiano Ronaldo's record of scoring in 8 consecutive Serie A games.

He said, "Spalletti is a coach who demands more from all his boys, in training he demands we give our all and go for the maximum. Now I understand him even more, he motivates me on the pitch as well as trying to correct me by screaming at me! That is normal, I think every coach does that.

“He has confidence in his boys, he gives us the strength we need, and the way to repay him is to give our all on the pitch and make him happy. I know that he is satisfied, but he still needs more from the boys and we will keep on giving him our best.

“I think this season has been tremendous for me and I am happy to find my feet this season. To be considered one of the best strikers in Europe is a huge thing for me, it's huge motivation, so I want to keep on going like this, getting the goals for the team and edging closer to our objective this season."
