Nigerian star, Victor Osimhen has officially been crowned as the Italian Footballers’ Association (AIC) Footballer of the Year.

 

Osimhen was selected as the 2023 winner largely due to his goal scoring contributions to Napoli’s title success.


The Nigeria international scored 26 times in 32 outings to help the Partenopei win their first Serie A title in 33 years.
