I have lost respect for Finidi, says Osimhen

Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has slammed coach Finidi George, saying he has lost respect for him due to comments about his attitude toward the national team.

Finidi, who reportedly resigned as the head coach of the Super Eagles on Saturday, had stated that he wouldn’t beg Osimhen to play for the national team after the player withdrew from their last two 2026 World Cup qualifiers due to injury.

Osimhen was sidelined by a four-week injury and was replaced by Enugu Rangers defender Kenneth Igboke.

However, following the Super Eagles’ poor performances against South Africa and Benin Republic, the narrative around Osimhen’s absence shifted.

An online source reported that during a meeting with the Sports Minister, John Enoh, in Abuja on Wednesday, Finidi blamed the players’ bad attitude on Osimhen’s absence.

Infuriated by these comments, Osimhen took to Instagram Live on Saturday to explain the circumstances behind his withdrawal from the last two World Cup qualifiers, adding that Finidi and his doctor were fully informed about his condition.

“I knew things like these would happen and that’s why I have the videos and screenshots of when I called Finidi while I was with the doctor in Germany,” Osimhen said.
