Red-hot Osimhen must keep working hard – Napoli boss Gattuso

Napoli manager Gennaro Gattuso has urged Victor Osimhen to continue with his eye-catching performances for the club.

The 21-year-old forward has been turning heads for the Parthenopeans since his big-money move from French side Lille in July.

The striker bagged an eight-minute hat-trick in their pre-season friendly against L'Aquila and continued his fine start to life at Stadio San Paolo against Teramo.

Gattuso, who has been impressed with the centre-forward, has advised the Super Eagles star not to soft-pedal on his form as he hopes he will replicate his pre-season performances when the 2020-21 campaign gets underway.
