Former Lazio manager Delio Rossi has emphatically declared that Napoli cannot win the Serie A title without Victor Osimhen.
SportsDayOnline.com reports that Osimhen, who is gradually recovering from his facial wounds, was spotted in training on Wednesday, for the first time since his surgery.
Although he was expected to be out of action for three months, the forward may likely get back to action earlier than anticipated.
Napoli has struggled in his absence, winning just one of four matches in all competitions, with Il Partenopei dropping to third on the league table.
Rossi in a chat with Tuttomercatoweb stated that Napoli can only win the Scudetto with Osimhen on the field of play.
“They all have the same possibilities. The championships are decided in March.
“Napoli lost Koulibaly and Osimhen, for a period they can compensate but in the long run, they can’t.
“We will have to see what happens to the other teams, which is why I say that everything will be decided in March.”
