Luciano Spaletti has had a very strong group all allong the way before this gopod ending.

But Victor Osimhen is arguably the main player in his squad as the Super Eagles always delivered when Napoli needed a goal.

The one he scored against Udinese (1-1) was his 22nd of the season which means he now holds the record for most goal scored in a single Serie A season ahead of Samuel Eto’o who bagged 21 with Inter Milan in 2010/11 season.
