Former Al Ahly manager Pitso Mosimane has explained why Napoli striker Victor Osimhene won the 2023 Confederation of African Football Award, Soccernet.ng reported.
Osimhen beat out the likes of Achraf Hakimi and Mohamed Salah to win the title of best player at the 2023 Confederation of African Football Awards.

Osimhen is currently on the verge of signing a new lucrative contract with Guri Azzurri and is on track to become one of the highest-paid players in the team, raising the price tag to €130 million. There is.
This significant improvement in Osimhen’s skills on the pitch has attracted interest from clubs such as Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal, all of whom are interested in signing the Nigerian striker, whose contract is extended until 2026. I am interested in the contract.
