“Be the Professional” – Victor Osimhen Told to Put ‘Head Down & Work’ After Suing Napoli For Humiliating TikTok Saga

Italian side Napoli and ace striker Victor Osimhen have found themselves in a sticky situation. A few days back, Napoli posted a video of Osimhen missing a penalty on their TikTok account, allegedly mocking the player. The actions did not go unnoticed by Osimhen. The striker was said to be fuming as he deleted all Napoli-related posts from his social media and decided to take legal action against Gli Azzurri.

Osimhen’s actions have not gone down well with an Italian soccer presenter who has asked him to ‘Put his head down and work’ rather than sue the club for a social media post.

Marika Fruscio advises Osimhen to stand down

Italian sports presenter Marika Fruscio recently spoke on Osimhen’s row with Gli Azzurri. Fruscio believes that the age of social media has let players’ hype get to their heads. The presenter then asked the Napoli ace to let the matter go and respect his club. “You’re a champion, but it takes humility. What’s the use of deleting the photos of the team that worshiped and supported you? What’s the point of flirting like this?? Even legal action for a sarcastic video? An intelligent man would have laughed at it. BE THE PROFESSIONAL. HEAD DOWN AND WORK. It’s our fault anyway that we make these players almost gods… JUST THE SHIRT, JUST THE SHIRT,” she said.

The entire matter stemmed from a TikTok posted by Napoli’s official account that saw the striker miss a penalty. The player had decided to sue his club, but it seems like the player has decided to let things go.

It seems like recent comments have got to Victor Osimhen, who has decided to drop the matter. According to emerging reports from Italian outlets, the player has dropped the matter altogether. Osimhen was seen in a jolly mood last night as he featured for his club in a 4-1 win over Udinese.

Despite being substituted early in the game, Osimhen was seen supporting his teammates while applauding the fans. Napoli fans will be happy that their star player and the club have decided to bury the matter. Napoli have been in great form as of late and Osimhen played a crucial role in the team’s rise last season.

What do you think? Were Fruscio’s comments out of pocket, or did she have a point?
