NAPOLI MAKES U-TURN, WITHDRAW OSIMHEN'S JERSEY NUMBER 9 FROM LUKAKU. (PHOTO).


 Napoli makes U-turn, withdraw Osimhen’s jersey number from Lukaku.

Napoli’s decision to ostracise the Super Eagles striker follows a failed move away from the club during the just-concluded transfer window.


Osimhen’s relationship with the club’s leadership broke down irreparably in recent months when he handed in a transfer request.
