Former Rangers and Fiorentina defender, Lorenzo Amoruso, is baffled as to why Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen is not playing for the club amidst interest from other clubs, Soccernet.ng reports.
The 25-year-old forward is keen on leaving Napoli this summer, and the club, in return, are looking for a way to resolve the situation, but their asking fee has proved to be a mountain too high for any club in Europe to climb.
Whilst the Super Eagles striker is waiting for his future to be sorted, he's been training alone and has not been included in Antonio Conte's matches this season.
The entire transfer saga has left Amoruso bemused. The ex-Blackburn Rovers defender believes interest from other clubs shouldn't stop Osimhen from playing or participating in Napoli's training.
“Osimhen would be an added value for Napoli, the problem is that he doesn't play despite being on a salary from Napoli. For me, when you are paid in July and August, you have to play, you have to train and play. Honestly, we are exaggerating the attitudes of the players and the agents. Even the doctors who look at these situations, as happened with (Atalanta midfielder Teun) Koopmeiners, are wrong. Is Koopmeiners really stressed? It seems strange to me. Unfortunately, contracts are now worthless. Those contracts, which are signed by two people, are only valid for clubs. For (Antonio) Conte? I don't think it will lead to resignation,” the 53-year-old told Radio Kiss Kiss in quotes revealed by Tribal Football.
Napoli have mustered just two shots on target and are yet to score in over 200 minutes of football this season, highlighting the lack of clinicality in their attack.
