Osimhen: ‘I already have my plan, the next step I want to take in my career

Victor Osimhen says he has decided on the next step he wants to take in his career.

The Napoli striker is currently with Nigeria at the Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast and on Tuesday he says he has already decided the next step in his career.

The 25-year-old Nigerian was the leading scorer in Italy’s Serie A a year ago and helped Napoli to its first Scudetto since 1990.

‘At the end of the season, I think I already made up my mind. I already know what I wanna do with my career, since I’ve started, I’ve been the one taking my own decision and everything is working out well for me.

‘Even though when I started it, it didn’t go so well as planned. But I already have my plan, I already know what I want to do, the next step I want to take.

‘So for now I just want to finish the season strong, go relax somewhere with my daughter, and then finally come up with the decision I’ve already made,’ he told CBS Sports and hinted his next destination may be the Premier League.

‘I think 60% of everyone are arguing, or the rumor is going around about me linked the Premier League. But…when you are one of the hottest strikers in the globe, you play this type of thing.

‘Of course, EPL is one of the biggest leagues in the whole world. Now I’m with Napoli, I signed a new contract, I’m enjoying my time there, going through it with the team.’
