Serie A leaders Napoli will be without star striker Victor Osimhen due to a groin injury when they take on last season’s champions AC Milan on Sunday.
The 24-year-old Nigerian international’s 21 goals in Serie A have propelled Napoli to the verge of their third Serie A title but first since the late Diego Maradona inspired them to the 1990 Scudetto.
However, he will have to sit out Sunday’s game after returning from international duty with the club saying: “He complained of a pain in his groin and medical tests revealed the injury.”
His status will be reviewed next week, the club added.
Napoli hold a 19-point lead over second placed Lazio with 11 matches remaining
