Serie A: Brazil legend reveals admiration for Osimhen

Published on October 10, 2023 at 04:44 PM

Former Brazil forward Edmundo Alves de Souza Neto has expressed his admiration for Victor Osimhen.

Edmundo, who was nicknamed “The Animal”; during his playing days, labelled Osimhen an absolute champion.

The 52-year-old and Osimhen share similarities in their playing style.

Edmundo was recently asked if his nickname ‘The Animal’ would suit Napoli’s talisman Osimhen.

“Well, I don’t know him that well,”; Edmundo told Italian sports newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“We have different characteristics, I played further back, and he is a centre-forward who knows how to go deep behind the defenders.

“I consider him an absolute champion, but I don’t know if he can be considered the best in his role at an international level.”;

Osimhen was top scorer in the Italian top-flight last season with 26 goals from 32 games.

The 24-year-old has registered five goals in nine appearances across all competitions the Serie A champions this season.
