Osimhen suffers injury scare ahead of Sunday's clash with Fiorentina

Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen reportedly suffered a 'muscle discomfort' while training with Napoli on Wednesday.

According to Italian journalist Claudio Russo, Osimhen underwent tests this morning that cleared him of any injuries.

In a post on Russo's personal Twitter page, the Italian journalist revealed that the injury scare was not as serious as feared.

Russo tweeted: "Victor Osimhen following a muscle discomfort he felt yesterday in training.

"This morning underwent instrumental tests which gave negative results and excluded injuries. The Napoli footballer performed personalized in the gym and on the pitch."

Russo further stated that the 23-year-old had private sessions in the gym and on the pitch on Thursday ahead of Napoli's Serie A clash with Fiorentina.

Osimhen is in line to start for Napoli this weekend after missing the Neapolitans last weekend's 3-1 victory against Atalanta due to a one-match suspension from yellow card accumulation.

The former Lille striker returned to Napoli's camp on Sunday after the club granted him extended leave following playing both legs of the Super Eagles World Cup Qualifiers against the Black Stars of Ghana.

Osimhen arrived in Naples in a private jet showing his class and comfort as Africa's most-expensive signing.
