Napoli and Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen has been named Serie A’s Player of the Month for September following his amazing start to the 2021-22 season.

The 22-year-old poacher beat Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barella, AC Milan’s Brahim Diaz and Fiorentina’s Giacomo Bonaventura to the award organized by the Italian Footballers’ Association.

Osimhen scored seven goals in six matches across all competitions for Luciano Spalletti’s side in September.

After he failed to hit the target in Napoli’s 2-1 victory over Juventus on September 11, the former Lille striker scored at least a goal in each of the three league matches he played later.
