LAGOS, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) – Napoli’s cheeky administrator is at it again, poking fun at Victor Osimhen on the team’s main TikTok account following his penalty miss in a recent football match.
In the viral TikTok video, a voice-over playfully refers to Victor Osimhen as ‘a coconut’ and humorously suggests that he’s not just an ordinary lad.
This playful trolling by Napoli’s admin stems from Osimhen’s penalty miss during a football match against Milan.
Meanwhile, Napoli is contemplating imposing a fine on their striker, Victor Osimhen, due to an incident in which he exchanged words with manager Rudi Garcia during their Serie A match against Bologna, which ended in a goalless draw at the Stadio Dall’Ara.

As they head into the second leg of their all-Italian Champions League quarterfinal at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, the outcome may hinge on the fitness of their center forwards.
Victor Osimhen, the Serie A top scorer, has returned after recovering from an abductor muscle injury in his left leg that kept him out of the first game against Milan, which ended in a 1-0 victory for the opposing team.
Meanwhile, Milan’s experienced striker, Olivier Giroud, is a cause for concern due to an Achilles tendon problem.
While Milan boasts seven European Cup and Champions League titles, with their last triumph in 2007, this is Napoli’s first appearance in the quarterfinals of the competition.
However, Osimhen’s performance in the recent match against Bologna left much to be desired as Napoli struggled to secure a victory.
In the face of their recent league struggles, Napoli aimed to claim three points against Bologna at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara.
Unfortunately, the reigning Serie A champions encountered stiff opposition from the home team, resulting in a hard-fought goalless draw.
Napoli had a golden opportunity to break the deadlock in the 72nd minute when referee Giovanni Ayroldi awarded them a penalty after a VAR review confirmed a handball by Riccardo Calafiori in the penalty box.
However, Osimhen’s spot-kick missed the target, leaving the home fans jubilant.
