Napoli manager, Francesco Calzona believes Victor Osimhen is gradually getting back to his best.
Osimhen fired a hat-trick in Napoli’s 6-1 victory against Sassuolo at the MAPEI Stadium on Wednesday night.
The Nigeria international has now scored five goals in three games since returning from the Africa Cup of Nations.
“Victor is returning to his levels. Clearly, he wasn’t in great shape after the Africa Cup of Nations, he was away for over a month and is slowly rediscovering his form,” Calzona told DAZN after the game.

“Kvara also struggled, but today showed just what he can do.”
“I sensed positivity from the first training session, the lads aways gave me their all. I was surprised to see how eager they were to work, to stay together, and that gave me hope.”
Osimhen saw action for 76 minutes against Sassuolo.
The powerful striker was replaced by Giovanni Simeone.
The 25-year-old has scored 13 goals and registered four assists in 21 appearances across all competitions for the Partenopei this season.

Last season Osime became the first African to win Serie A golden boot, a record he’s presently working towards its retention. Going without competition ‘s a clear mark of difference. I see Osime becoming World best shortly.
