Nigerian football star and Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen, missed training on Friday to bond with his new born baby girl in the city of Naples.
Recall that Osihmen’s long time girlfriend delivered a baby girl on Thursday.
His club, Napoli, broke the news in a statement on their official website without revealing where and when the child was born, with the mother’s identity also hidden.
The 23-year-old, who is currently recovering from a hamstring injury, wasn’t present at training on Friday morning when the rest of the team resumed training after Tuesday’s UEFA Champions League 6-1 whitewash of Ajax in Amsterdam.
The Nigerian striker wasn’t known to be romantically involved with any woman, which is why the news of his daughter’s birth will come as a rude shock to his fans, especially in Nigeria.
The 23 year old striker could return back to action for Napoli in Serie A fixture against Cremonese on Sunday, and could also be available against Ajax in the Champions League.
Osimhen has not featured for Napoli since September 7, 2022 when he suffered the injury during their 4-1 thrashing of Liverpool at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in the Champions League.
