Roma Manager, Jose Mourinho believes Victor Osimhen is on the same level with former Chelsea striker, Didier Drogba.

Osimhen scored a sensational goal on Sunday night as Napoli defeated Roma 2-1 to extend their lead at the top of the log to 13 points.

The Nigeria international also scored a similar goal when both teams met earlier in the season at the Stadio Olimpico.

Speaking at a press conference after the game on Sunday night, Mourinho was asked about the comparison between Osimhen and Drogba.

“He is of the same level as Drogba, but Didier didn’t dive,” replied Mourinho.

“If Victor changes, then okay. I’d buy him if I was at a club with a lot of money. However, if he does go to England one day, he needs to change, because in Italy they put up with this sort of behaviour, whereas in the Premier League, they’d come down hard on him.”

Osimhen is currently the leading scorer in Serie A with 14 goals from 16 matches.

His compatriot, Ademola Lookman is second with 12 goals.

Mourinho couldn't avoid acknowledging Osi is super hot!


And it would require lots of money to price him away.

I asked Jose Mourinho what he told Victor Osimhen on the sidelines:

“I told him, you’re a good player but you don’t always need to dive.”

“He’s a good player. I clapped for his goal from my seat.”

Mourinho: "The result of the game is negative, but I am confident. We played our best game of the season so far."

"Today we saw Napoli with the champion's star, I know it well because I've had it 8 times in my career. This year the belongs to them."

That yesterday's goal by Osimhen was simply outta this world mehn!

He controlled the ball with his chest, kept it in play with his strong laps and ballooned it inside the net and the ball not touching the ground with all those touches!!!

Give it to him, the guy is a beast.

Highest Goal Scorer in Italy currently with 14 goals.

The run-away champions elect.

Mourinho generally likes African strikers.
You don't expect him not to say something negative about an opposition player but believe me he like Osimhen alot, if he has money like he said, he will surely buy him
