The Nigerian international had a debut to remember for his new side, but the City’s number one religious leader has ‘jokingly told him to do more

Crescenzio Sepe, the Archbishop of the city of Naples, appears to be impressed with Osimhen’s Napoli’s debut but wants him to set a new record.

Osimhen could not have hoped for a better debut after he scored a hat-trick in Napoli’s pre-season friendly win over L’Aquila.

Osimhen scored his first three goals in a Gli Azzurri shirt in the space of seven minutes. While it was an impressive performance, the Archbishop has challenged him to score five goals in five minutes next time. Sepe made the request while he was addressing Napoli’s players before the start of Thursday’s training.

Cardinal Sepe blessed the Napoli squad this morning and made a request to @victorosimhen9;

“You scored 3 goals in 7 minutes, next time you have to score 5 goals in 5 minutes!”
