Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry, has urged Super Eagles Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen, to be more consistent in scoring and should not think about joining Arsenal if he eventually made the move to the English Premier League.
Henry stated this after Osimhen’s goal against Barcelona in recent Champions League last-16 first-leg clash in Naples kept Napoli in the tie.
Osimhen drew Napoli level at 1-1 with his only shot on goal in the match 15 minutes after Robert Lewandowski scored on the hour mark.
The goal was his first since he rejoined Napoli after playing for Nigeria at the Africa Cup of Nations in January.
While speaking with CBS Sports Golazo, Henry challenged the 25-year-old to prove himself outside the Italian Serie A where he won the Scudetto and won the Capocannoniere.
Henry said: “I think he needed the goal today (on Wednesday).
“At the AFCON, we saw him, he can lead the line, run into the channels, and he has excellent hold-up play.
“How good can he be? He showed last year what he could do and won the African Player of The Year along the way, winning the Scudetto with Napoli and getting to the final with Nigeria.
“I’d like to see him now, what he can do in the Premier League or wherever he’s going or Paris Saint-Germain. Not Arsenal, I won’t go there.
“I want to see him take the next step and be more consistent with his output, but to be able to win the title with Napoli the way he did will stay in history forever, so all the best to him in his career.”
