Osimhen Bags Serie A Player Of The Year Award

Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has won the award for the Italian Footballers’ Association Footballer of the Year for his outstanding performance with the Neapolitans last season.

Osimhen’s 26 goals were crucial in the Partenopei winning their first Scudde in 33 years.

Other awards presented during the Monday night presentation were team of the year, coach of the year, club of the year, and goal of the season.

Despite a difficult start to the 2023-24 season and subsequent injury troubles, Osimhen has maintained his outstanding goals-per-game ratio, with six from ten following the 14th game week.

Rafael Leao, Gianluigi Buffon, Cristiano Ronaldo, Andrea Prilo, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic have previously received the honour.
