Expert Tips Joshua Zirkzee as potential replacement for Victor Osimhen at Napoli
Italian football pundit Davide Bombardini has identified Bologna’s striker Joshua Zirkzee as a promising candidate to succeed Victor Osimhen at Napoli.
Osimhen played a crucial role in Napoli’s Scudetto victory last season, but injuries have plagued his current campaign, sparking speculation about his potential departure from the club.
With doubts surrounding Giovanni Simeone’s suitability as a replacement, Bombardini believes Zirkzee, a Nigerian-eligible player from Bologna, could fill the void left by Osimhen.
“Zirkzee is a player of significant value, and the upcoming summer transfer window will determine his market worth,” Bombardini said. “I believe he has the capability to step into Osimhen’s shoes. He is a player with a bright future, and an investment in him could yield substantial growth.”
Zirkzee’s talent and potential growth make him an attractive option for Napoli as they plan for the future.
