Osimhen's return on Monday confirmed

Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, is fit and available to make his return to Serie A action when his club Napoli plays Bologna at the Renato Dall'Ara Stadium on Monday evening.

It will be Osimhen's first game in two months.

The 23-year-old has been included in the travelling squad, for the first time since he fractured his left cheekbone and orbit in their 3-2 loss to Inter Milan in the league last November.

Osimhen underwent surgery following the injury and was ruled out for three months.

But the Nigerian made a quick return to individual training after just two weeks before resuming team training earlier this month.

His return is a timely boost for Napoli, whose title hopes have faded in recent weeks.

The Neapolitans are now seven points behind the leaders' Inter Milan.
