"Why I Keep On Using Face Mask" - Osimhen

By Sampson Adedeji

Super Eagles and Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has finally revealed the reason he continued to use the face mask despite healing of his facial injury, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The Nigeria international sustained a facial injury earlier last season which prompted him to use the mask based on the medics' recommendation.

While speaking to Tutto, Osimhen revealed that the mask has become a trademark for him.

 â€œI am so used to wearing it now that I think I always will. I risked a lot that time, now it has become a sort of trademark for me", he said.

Osimhen is expected to be back in action for Napoli next month and may also be ready for the 2026 World Cup qualifier.
