Osimhen was mocked by Napoli on TikTok after missing a penalty against Bologna last week

Nigeria forward, Victor Osimhen on Wednesday night failed to show any emotion despite netting the second goal in Napoli’s 4-1 annihilation of Udinese.

TheNiche had earlier reported that the Super Eagles frontman frowned at a social media post shared on Tuesday by his club, Napoli and threatened to sue the club.

This was after the Italian outfit shared a TikTok video that appeared to have mocked the Nigerian international after he missed a penalty during their 0-0 draw with Bologna last weekend on their page. 

His agent, Roberto Calenda, after the clip made the rounds on social media slammed the Serie A champions for the now-deleted post.

Curiously, Osimhen was picked to start the game against Udinese despite his relationship with the club souring in the past 24 hours.

The 24-year-old striker during the encounter ended his four-match wait for a goal, but chose not to celebrate it, as he sought to make his stance on the ongoing feud with Napoli and their social media antics clear.

The usually emphatic celebrator instead adopted a mooted stance, while team-mates ran over to congratulate him.
