Osimhen was at the end of a tidy cross-in from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. The Nigerian cushioned the ball on his chest and redirected it with the thigh before smashing a shot into the roof of the net beyond Rui Patricio.
It was the 24-year-old’s 14th league goal of the season, adding to his comfort at the summit of Serie A’s goal scorers.
Osimhen was nominated for the best player award in January and received the award a few days later.
Along with Ademola Lookman, Lautaro Martinez, Paulo Dybala, and Luis Alberto, he was listed for the monthly award.
Osimhen has been on fire, scoring 15 goals in 20 games in all competitions and assisting Napoli in maintaining their 13-point lead at the top of Serie A.
