Victor Osimhen recently extended his contract with Napoli, and it appeared that peace had finally returned around the striker. However, that was short-lived. On Instagram, Osimhen launched a harsh verbal attack against the agent of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Mamuka Jugeli, the representative of Napoli's forward Kvaratskhelia, added fuel to the fire when he mentioned in an interview that he had heard about Osimhen's potential transfer to Saudi Arabia in the summer.
Osimhen was clearly incensed by the agent's comments and did not mince words in his response on Instagram.
In his Instagram post, Osimhen directly addressed Mamuka Jugeli, saying, "Dear Mamuka Jugeli, You are trash and a disgrace. I am ashamed of your reasoning. Idiot! KEEP MY NAME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!"
Osimhen's outburst once again thrust him into the spotlight of Italian sports news, reminiscent of the attention he garnered last summer. During that time, Osimhen missed a crucial penalty and found himself in a dispute with then-coach Rudi García, resulting in fines imposed by the club.
Adding to the turmoil, Napoli's official TikTok account posted a video intended to be humorous but offensive to Osimhen, mocking his missed penalty. This further infuriated the striker, who even threatened legal action in response. Fortunately, the situation was eventually resolved.
Despite these past issues, Osimhen committed his future to Napoli by signing a new contract extension on December 23rd, which ties him to the club until mid-2026. However, his recent outburst on social media has reignited tensions and once again made him a central figure in Italian football news, just as he prepares to represent Nigeria in the Africa Cup of Nations.
