President-elect Bola Tinubu has congratulated the Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen for powering Napoli to the Serie A title, describing the forward as the real deal.
Napoli scored the decisive goal in the 1-1 draw with Udinese that effectively ended his side’ 33 years of wait for a Scudetto.
The former Lille of France forward is regarded as one of the best players in the world after scoring 22 goals to hand the Napoliteans their third Serie A title and Tinubu in a post on his official Twitter handle hailed the striker.
“I think we can all agree that there was another coronation in Italy where our son, Victor Osimhen, claimed the crown as the new King of Serie A! The real deal, or idán gangan as younger folks may describe him; Victor has continued the fine tradition of Nigeria’s footballing excellence on the global stage. We are all proud of him and wish him well in what is already a remarkable career,” he said.
