Osimhen has deleted all photos and videos featuring a Napoli shirt on his Instagram Napoli

The 24-year-old Victor Osimhen will take firm steps against the unpleasant treatment carried out by his club, Napoli. This problem will be resolved through legal channels. It all started with a video uploaded by Napoli's official account on TikTok. The video is badmouthing Osimhen, their player. The TikTok video itself was immediately deleted by the Italian club Napoli. However, a total of two videos that vilified Osimhen were first secured by netizens and are still circulating on social media.

The Nigerian Osimhen did not accept that Napoli resolved the problem by simply deleting the video. He and his agent will take this matter to court. There are two videos uploaded to Napoli's official account. The first was a mockery when Osimhen failed to execute a penalty against Bologna in Week 5 of the 2023/2024 Italian League. Osimhen's failure forced Napoli to end the match with a 0-0 draw. The video mocks Osimhen as whining for a penalty but failing to execute it.

Secondly, the mockery video is more absurd and seems racist. The caption on the video reads, "I'm not a man, I'm not a woman, I'm a coconut." Osimhen's agent, Roberto Calenda, was furious with Napoli's treatment of his client and threatened to take him to court. “What happened on Napoli's official Tiktok account is completely unacceptable. The video mocking Osimhen was initially broadcast to the public, then suddenly deleted. “This causes very serious harm to the player and adds to the suffering he has received in recent times between him and the media.

"We reserve the right to take legal action and any initiative to protect Victor [Osimhen]," said Calenda as quoted by MARCA. Meanwhile, Napoli is still silent about the incident. The incident that just occurred further worsened the relationship between the two parties.
