Victor Osimhen, Napoli's star striker, is set to miss Friday's Serie A clash against Fiorentina due to a muscle injury sustained in last weekend's loss to Bologna.

The 25-year-old Nigerian international has been unable to train with his teammates this week, instead undergoing physiotherapy and personalized gym work.

Despite this setback, Osimhen has had a productive season, netting 15 goals in Serie A.

However, his playing time has been hampered by various injuries and his participation in the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year.

Napoli will undoubtedly miss Osimhen's presence on the pitch as they face Fiorentina in this crucial away game.
