Just like Onuachu, Napoli of Italy striker, Victor Osimhen, has been in superlative form this season. The former Lille OSC star scored his sixth goal in six games for Napoli in their 2-0 win over Cagliari on Sunday. Osimhen has now scored four times in his last three games for the Luciano Spaletti led side. Saturday, September 25, was a sad day for Nigerian boxing fans as Anthony Joshua lost his IBF, IBO, WBA, and WBO heavyweight titles to Oleksandr Usyk of Ukraine at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
