Victor Osimhen has rejoined Napoli’s training session after a prolonged absence of almost seven weeks.

The 24-year-old striker, had been sidelined due to a right hamstring injury sustained while on duty with the national team in October, causing him to miss Napoli’s last six matches, including two in the UEFA Champions League.

Osimhen’s absence dealt a blow to Napoli’s aspirations in both domestic and international competitions.

According to the latest updates on Napoli’s official website, Osimhen actively participated in group training.

He engaged in individual workouts in the gym, showcasing his commitment to regaining full fitness.

There is growing optimism that the Forward will make his highly anticipated return to the pitch this weekend when Napoli faces Atalanta at the Gewiss Stadium in the Serie A.

This crucial fixture also marks the debut of new manager Walter Mazzarri, adding an extra layer of anticipation for Napoli fans.

Before his injury setback, Osimhen had been in stellar form, netting six goals in 10 appearances for Napoli. ​

As the team eagerly awaits his return, the hope is that Osimhen’s dynamic presence will reignite Napoli’s pursuit of success both domestically and on the European stage.
