Super Eagles head coach Jose Peseiro has tipped Victor Osimhen to play for some of the the biggest clubs in Europe.
Osimhen is currently touted one of the best forwards in the game.
The Nigeria international played a key role in Napoli’s Scudetto success last season.
The forward scored 26 goals in 32 appearances for the Partenopei.
Napoli rebuffed offers from European big guns and Saudi clubs for Osimhen this summer.
Peseiro however believes the player will play for the likes of Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Manchester United and Manchester City in future.
“The certainty I have is that in the end Osimhen will be in one of the best teams in Europe. He can play for any top team: Madrid, Bayern, United, City,” Peseiro said in an interview with AS.
Peseiro also explained why he is convinced that Osimhen is a world-class attacker. READ ALSO:

“He is a star, because of his ability to score goals, to fight, to press,” Peseiro added.
“He is a very strong player offensively. He puts a lot of pressure on the defenders. He has vigour, aggression, speed, power and he has a goal. He’s obsessed with scoring goals.”
