By Sampson Adedeji

Head coach of the Italia Serie A side Napoli, Gennaro Gattuso has confirmed that Nigeria's Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen will give his team different options especially in the attack, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Former Wolfburg of Germany attacker joined Napoli this summer from the French Lique One side LOSC Lille in a club record fee.

Gattuso has sworn to a 4-3-3 formation since he took over the Azzurri and only changed formation once in his first 30 games, against Barcelona in the Champions League.

The Partenopei coach has revealed he looks forward to having Osimhen at his disposal and won’t rule out using a different system with the Nigerian forward in the squad.

“It could be, he has different characteristics than those we had,” Gattuso said at a press conference. “He can give us the opportunity to attack spaces.

“He has great physical strength and I think he can give us a big hand," he stated.
