Victor Osimhen has said his love for Napoli is “unwavering” after his agent said the player “reserves the right to take legal action” against the club after a video was posted and then deleted from the Serie A side’s official TikTok account on Tuesday.
Osimhen deleted almost all pictures of himself in the team’s shirt from his social media accounts after the club posted a video online mocking him.

“Coming to the City of Naples in 2020 was a wonderful decision for me. The People of Naples have shown me so much love and kindness, and I will not allow anyone to come between us,” Osimhen said in a statement posted on social media on Sunday.
“The passion of the People of Naples fuels my fire to always play with my heart and soul, and the love for the badge is unwavering as I wear it with pride.
“The accusations against People of Naples are untrue. I have a lot of friends that are Napolitans and have become part of my family and everyday life. I appreciate Nigerians and everyone for leading their voices to support and reach out to me”.
“Thanks so much, I’m forever grateful. Let’s support unity, respect and understanding. FORZA NAPOLI SEMPRE.”
