The doll bears an uncanny resemblance to their talismanic forward Victor Osimhen.
The doll went viral on social media because it has several rather obvious elements that link it to the Nigerian international.
This includes a protective mask with the 9 on it, a light blue jersey and a blond tuft of curly hair.
“With reference to the news, which appeared on numerous online information sites, relating to the imminent marketing of a children’s game called “Cicciobello Bomber” – a doll that reproduces the features of the player Victor Osimhen, portrayed wearing a uniform clearly referable to the shirt from the Club’s first team – the SSCN specifies that this is an unofficial product, the creation of which has not been authorized in any way by the Club,” Napoli said in a statement.
