Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen has been named in the Serie A team of the 2023-24 season following his impressive performances for Napoli .

This is the second consecutive season Osimhen will be named in the team of the year after he played a pivotal role in Napoli’s title-winning campaign in the 2022-23 season.

He scored 26 goals in 32 Serie A appearances to win the league’s top scorer award.

Osimhen was included in the 23-man list announced on Serie A’s social media accounts on Sunday.

Despite Napoli’s poor defence of the Serie A title, Osimhen has distinguished himself with a series of match-winning performances.

Osimhen’s season has been blighted by injuries and he also missed one month of action due to his participation in the African Cup of Nations, where he led the Super Eagles to a silver medal finish in Ivory Coast.

The 26-year-old has scored 15 goals and recorded three assists in 24 Serie A appearances for Napoli this season.

He is currently the third highest goal scorer in the league behind Lautaro Martinez and Dusan Vlahovic, who have scored 24 and 16 goals respectively.

Napoli have endured a poor 2023-24 season, finishing 10th on the table which made them miss out on European competition.
