Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen’s talismanic volley against Roma in the second leg of the Derby de Sole has been voted as Serie A Goal of the Month of January.

Many have hailed him for his composure, and great technique following his classy opener in the I Partenopei’s 2-1 triumph over Jose Mourinhoโs Roma on Sunday.
His 17-minute wonder striker had Napoli fans bouncing in Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
Even the opponent coach, Mourinho said: “He [Victor Osimhen] is a good player. I clapped for his goal from my seat.โ
