Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku heaped praises on Nigerian forward Victor Osimhen calling the Napoli star as the best in Serie A at the moment.
The Super Eagle is having a glaring season as Napoli are current Serie A leaders.
Osimhen and teammates are running over the Italian top-flight since the start of the season as they remain unbeaten after 15 games (13 wins and 2 draws).
Victor Osimhen has been instrumental so far for the Partenopei as he netted 9 goals and provided 3 assists in 11 league appearances.

Speaking during an interview with Sky Sports, Lukaku hailed Osimhen who is currently on Top of Serie A scorers chart as well as their coach Luciano Spaletti.
” [Luciano] Spalletti has done a great job, we have to say,” Lukaku said.
“They [Napoli] have really strong players. I’ve been out and seen many of their games. Napoli are in a good moment. Osimhen scores many goals, [Piotr] Zielinski is well, Kvara [Khvicha Kvaratskhelia], on the left, [Hirving] Lozano or [Matteo] Politano on the right.
“Osimhen is really strong. Now he’s the best striker. We have to be honest. He’s strong and he’s doing really well for Napoli. They are first in the standings. We have respect, but not fear”.
