Serie A: Napoli still strong without Osimhen – Garcia

Napoli manager Rudi Garcia has boasted that the Serie A champions still have a potent attack despite losing their talismanic striker, Victor Osimhen, to injury.

Osimhen sustained a thigh injury on international duty with Nigeria last week and is expected to be sidelined for around a month.

The Partenopei defeated Hellas Verona 3-1 in his absence on Saturday.

Kvicha Kvaratskhelia (brace) and Hirving Lozano were the goal scorers for Napoli in the game.

Garcia said Napoli are lucky to have quality attackers.

β€œJack’ (Raspadori) is good at tying the team together and gives us the opportunity to balance the midfield,” Garcia told DAZN.

β€œWe are lucky to have Victor Osimhen, Raspadori, and Giovanni Simeone in this squad. It is better not to have any injuries, but I was calm because I know that we still have a lot of quality in the attack.”

Osimhen has scored six goals in 10 appearances across all competitions for Napoli this season
