Sensational Victor Osimhen has described winning the Serie A title with Napoli as one of the happiest moments of his life.
The 24-year-old striker reveled in the moments in a post on his verified Twitter handle on a Monday.
In the just-concluded season, the Nigerian international scored 26 goals and made four assists to help the Naples win their first Scudetto title in 33 years.
The goals earned him the best Serie A striker of the season and the league’s all-time top African scorer this was as many argued that he deserved the Serie A Player of the Year award that was given to his teammate Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Reflecting on the moments, Osimhen wrote: “This is one of the happiest moments of my Life, We are the SCUDETTO CHAMPIONS!! This achievement fills me with pride and joy, and we couldn’t have done it without the unwavering support of our coaches, and the incredible Napoli fans. This victory belongs to all of us!
“The journey to this huge victory hasn’t always been smooth sailing, but it’s the ups and downs that have shaped us into the champions we are today! We turned every moment of adversity, setbacks, and tough defeats to more motivation, hunger and determination to keep fighting hard. The fans lifted us up, kept encouraging us, and reminded us of the greatness we were capable of achieving.
“Not only that, I emerged as the best striker of the Serie A 2022-2023 season, which makes me the first African player ever to win the golden boot in the league history and first player to combine this achievement with the Scudetto since 2009.This gives me so much joy and i am incredibly humbled to have achieved these.
“To my fans worldwide , I see you all! The support, the motivations and the love, I am super grateful. You all have always honoured me and I am proud to be a Nigerian. Thank You For The Unforgettable Journey.
“God Is The Greatest 🇳🇬💙🇮🇹
