Ahead of their Champions League encounter against Ajax on Wednesday, Napoli manager Luciano Spalletti says star striker Victor Osimhen is ready to make his return from injury.

The Nigerian international picked up an injury in Napoli’s UEFA Champions League clash against Liverpool on September 8.

He trained with his teammates on Monday for the first time since he sustained the injury.

According to Spalletti, Osimhen is in the right shape to feature in Wednesday’s game against the Eredivisie Champions who also have Nigerian international, Calvin Bassey in their ranks.

He said, “Victor is a strength of our team because he is a top player. He is working well and is ready to give his contribution,” Spalleti told a press conference on Tuesday.

Napoli are unbeaten in this season’s competition, sitting on top of Group A with a win against Ajax to seal their early passage to the next round.
