Why Henry Onyekuru's coach believes Napoli's Osimhen poses a threat to AC Milan's defense
Posted : 20 April 2023
Prior to Napoli's match against AC Milan, Vincenzo Montella, the manager of Adana Demirspor, emphasized the importance of Nigerian forward Victor Osimhen.
The Parthenopeans will meet Stefano Pioli's squad at Diego Maradona Stadium for a rematch of their UEFA Champions League match in an effort to advance to the tournament semifinals.
Henry Onyekuru, 24, has recently returned from an injury, and Montella, who defended him when his club fans jeered him on Saturday, thinks he will be essential to their bid to upset Milan.
Luciano Spalletti's club has struggled to start the season after the conclusion of the international break, losing to Milan 4-nil in the league and 1-nil in the first leg of their Champions League clash.
In an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport, Montella claimed that the addition of Osimhen will complete the puzzle needed for the team to exact revenge for their earlier defeats at the hands of the Rossoneri.
“I think so, for how he attacks deep, fills the area, and for his aerial play skills. And then, because he helps the team even when the ball belongs to others, it misses if he isn’t there. He makes an impact if he is there, provided it’s in ideal conditions. Napoli recognises themselves more with him.
“They change their way of playing, and they will change it against AC Milan,” the coach said.
