Former Napoli striker Stefan Schwoch has advised Victor Osimhen to exempt himself from penalty duties at the club.
Schwoch believes the Nigeria international is not skilled at taking penalties.
The forward missed from the spot in Napoli’s hard-earned 2-1 victory against Juventus last weekend.
His blushes was saved by Giancomo Raspadori, who slotted home the rebound.

Schwoch, who believed Osimhen is a quality striker said he is missing too many penalties.
“It’s impossible not to save it (Osimhen’s penalty), given his body posture. Three errors out of seven attempts from the spot are too many,” Schwoch made the comments on Tuesday during Italian TV program, Il bello del calcio.
“There are phenomenal players who, however, aren’t skilled from eleven metres. Osimhen appears to be one of them,”
The 25-year-old has scored 11 goals in 15 league appearances for the reigning Serie A champions.

He will learn he doesn’t miss it intentionally.
Osimhen can adopt Omeruo style of taken penalty during the last afcon.
The boy will learn from it.
Osimhen knows too, which is why he excused himself at the Afcon and left it to Ekong. He needs time to perfect his penalty skills. Till then, it’s okay to just focus on scoring from open play.
