Napoli
Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen will meet gaffer, Gennaro Gattu­so after he apologized for breaking the club's coronavirus protocol following a party he organized in Lagos, BSNSports.com.ng reports. Osimhen has yet to feature for his club after he dislocated his shoulder during Nigeria's Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Sierra Leone on No­vember 13. The striker who is still injured was granted permission to travel to Nigeria for the winter break where he attended a party to celebrate his 22nd birthday on December 29. Upon his return to Naples, the 22-year-old tested positive for coronavirus and a video of him surfaced on social media where he was seen without wearing a face mask and no social distancing observed in the party. After Napoli’s 4-1 win over Cagliari on Sunday, Gattuso gave his opinion on the situ­ation. “He’s a young lad who gives his all in training,” the Italian manager told the club website. “He knows he’s made a mis­take and he’s apologised. “I’ll speak to him. I know how much he wants to get back onto the right track and get back playing.”
