VIDEO: Spalletti orders Osimhen to leave training session

The Super Eagles star is the postal boy for the Partenopeans, but he was involved in a row during training 

Napoli coach Luciano Spalletti ordered Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen to leave their training session on Sunday because of dissent.

Osimhen is the postal boy for Napoli, but he has occasionally gotten himself in the news for some bad reasons. Nonetheless, his quality is never in question, as he scored 14 league goals last season, attracting interest from some of Europe’s top teams.

According to Football Italia, the players were having a game between ranks at the Castel di Sangro camp when Osimhen got angry at what he thought was a foul from new signing Leo Ostigard.

The 23-year-old continued to protest so much that even Andre Zambo Anguissa tried to calm him down.

Spalletti felt Osimhen was complaining too much, and he ordered him to leave the pitch. And even whilst walking off the pitch, the Super Eagles striker was still complaining furiously.
