The annulment of Ligue 1 last season meant Victor Osimhen probably left Lille with a tinge of sadness at having ‘unfinished business’ in the French top flight.
The young forward returned to one of Europe’s top five leagues for the first time since a torrid spell with Wolfsburg in Germany to, by and large, devastating effect in 2019/20.
Osimhen was on 13 Ligue 1 goals from 25 starts when the season was curtailed, but that didn’t stop Napoli from swooping on one of the continent’s brightest exports, despite playing less than a full season at the top level.
