Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen paid a surprise visit to his former club Royal Charleroi as Napoli kick-started preparations for the second half of the season.
Osimhen joined Belgian club Charleroi in 2018 on a season-long loan, having failed to score in any of his 16 appearances for Wolfsburg.
After a successful spell with the Belgian side, playing 36 games and scoring 20 goals, Charleroi activated their option to acquire Osimhen following his satisfactory performances on loan.
Osimhen took advantage of the proximity of the Belgian club’s retreat to that of Napoli in Antalya and visited the team that launched him after buying him from Wolfsburg.
“Greetings to all Charleroi fans, I’m Victor Osimhen. I went to visit the team in Antalya. I wish you a good second half of the season, thanks for the support you give me,” Osimhen said, as reported by Area Napoli.
“You have always given in all these years. Thank you all. Charleroi is my second home, a second family for me, I wish the best to coach Felice Mazzù. He knows the club and will take you to the top. I wish you the best and I say Foza Charleroi.”
The 23-year-old has been on a World Cup break with the Parthenopeans after Nigeria failed to qualify for the 2022 Mundial in Qatar.
