The Nigerian Victor Osimhen, Naples forward, could take legal action against his own club for the publication of a humorous video published on the social network TikTok about his miss against Bologna from eleven meters last day.
Just on the day that the president of Naples, the Italian Aurelio de Laurentiis, was registered in the suspect register of the Rome Prosecutor's Office, accused of a crime of "accounting falsehood" and "fraudulent declaration", for his involvement in Some alleged fictitious capital gains in the signing of Osimhen from French side Lille, the striker added fuel to the fire with the possibility of taking legal action against the club for a video published on TikTok.
"What happened today on the official Napoli profile on the TikTok platform is not acceptable. A video mocking Víctor was first made public and then, although late, it was deleted. A serious event that causes very serious damage to the player and adds to the treatment he is receiving in the last period between media trials and fake news. We reserve the right to take legal action and any useful initiative to protect Victor," Roberto Calenda, his representative, explained this Tuesday on the 'X' platform.
Osimhen is thus involved in the center of the hurricane that Napoli is going through. Not only is he a protagonist in the possible fictitious capital gains - although the sports justice system has already closed this investigation - and in the recent issue of TikTok, because on Sunday he also left one of the images of the day when confronting his coach, the Frenchman Rudi García , for having changed him with a few minutes remaining and with the score tied after his penalty miss.
And Naples has only won 2 of the first five games and is far from its best version, the one it exhibited not so long ago with the Italian Luciano Spalletti and which led it to win the 'Scudetto', the third in its history. and the first without the Argentine Diego Armando Maradona.
All, moreover, against the backdrop of the renewal of the Nigerian's contract, which for now has not been certified despite months of negotiations. He was already tempted by several offers from Saudi Arabia, but he did not end up signing and stayed in the city of Vesuvius with a current contract, for now, until 2025.
