Brentford midfielder Frank Onyeka has expressed his desire to see Victor Osimhen in the Premier League this summer
Osimhen has continued to shine despite Napoli’s struggles this term, netting 11 goals and providing three assists across 16 league matches.
He has attracted the attention of a number of Premier League clubs like Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal.
Speaking to Sky Sports Onyeka was asked what it was like to play with Osimhen in the Nigeria squad at the Africa Cup of Nations and if he could join him at Brentford.

“He’s always there to help the team, fight for the team. Even when the team is down he’ll be the first man to push the team. He never gives up. For me he was one of the best players in the tournament but people don’t really see what he does.
“Hopefully he comes to the Premier League.”
