Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, has been showered with congratulations from his team, fellow players, and fans, following his remarkable top-ten finish in the Ballon d’Or rankings, Soccernet.ng reports.
The 24-year-old delivered an exceptional individual and club performance last season, netting twenty-six goals in the league, which propelled Napoli to their first Serie A title in over three decades.

Messages of congratulations poured in from fans, clubs, and his teammates worldwide, lauding the Super Eagles star for his remarkable achievement.
Super Eagles striker, Taiwo Awoniyi, took to his Instagram story to celebrate Osimhen, and Genk’s Toluwalase Arokodare echoed the sentiment, labeling Osimhen as the greatest he has ever seen.
Red Star Belgrade’s Peter Olayinka and Rangers center-back Leon Balogun extended their congratulations, while Wilfred Ndidi of Leicester City expressed his pride in Osimhen for his accomplishments.
Kvicha Kvaratskhelia, who secured 17th place in the rankings, was also commended by Napoli, who acknowledged the attacking duo on their official page.
