Osimhen wins AIC Footballer of the Year award

By Advocate | December 5, 2023 | 1 min read |

Victor Osimhen has been crowned Italian Footballers’ Association (AIC) Footballer of the Year.

Osimhen earned the award after a splendid season with Napoli.

The 24-year-old was a key factor in the Partenopei’s title triumph, their first in 33 years.

The Nigerian international netted 26 goals in 32 league matches for Napoli.

Despite a rough start to the 2023–24 season and recent injury woes, Osimhen has maintained his remarkable goals-per-game average, with six from 10 after the 14th gameweek.

The award was previously won by the likes of Rafael Leao, Gianluigi Buffon, Cristiano Ronaldo, Andrea Prilo, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
