Napoli may be without Victor Osimhen for the Europa League game against Leicester City next Thursday.
Osimhen played in red-list countries (Cape Verde) during the international break and might not be clear to enter England for the game.
Recalled Premier League stopped all players from traveling to the red-list countries during the international break in order to avoid being quarantined for at least 10 days .
Napoli face the Foxes at the King Power Stadium on Thursday, September 16 in their opening Europa League group stage game of the season and Osimhen will miss the game unless he has British or Irish national or residence rights in the UK.
According to Il Mattino, Osimhen arrived in Rome on Friday and will need to complete documents at the British embassy in the capital to be allowed to travel to the UK and it remain to be seen if he will be allowed to play against the Foxes without self-isolating.
Meanwhile, the Super Eagles striker will be available for Napoli’s league game against Juventus this weekend.
