‘Keep my name out of your mouth,’ Victor Osimhen rattles teammate’s agent
Victor Osimhen took a swipe at Khvicha Kvaratskhelia’s agent on Wednesday morning, labelling him a ‘dumb f***’ and a ‘piece of filth’.
The Napoli forward fired his teammate’s representative after he suggested that Osimhen would leave Napoli for Saudi Arabia next summer.
The Nigerian forward recently signed a new contract until 2026 in December, with his salary reportedly more than doubling to £8.6m per season, and rejected a £115m advance from Saudi side Al-Hilal in the summer.
Kvaratskhelia’s agent, Mamuka Jugeli, hinted that Osimhen would move to Saudi Arabia and suggested that the African Player of the Year Award Winner was driven by money.
Osimhen responded on Instagram, saying: ‘Dear Mamuka Jugeli, you are a piece of filth and a disgrace.
‘I’m embarrassed at your sense of reasoning.
‘Dumb f**k! Keep my name out of your mouth,’ he concluded, channelling his inner Will Smith.
Jugeli in quotes reported by La Gazzetta Dello Sport said the Nigerian may leave the Italian sides for Saudi due to the massive financial offer.
He said: ‘Victor Osimhen has signed a new contract, but do you really believe he’ll play for Napoli for his entire career?
‘I’ll tell you in advance, he (Osimhen) will go to Saudi Arabia next summer. Napoli raised his salary but Kvicha wouldn’t accept such a transfer even for a billion.
‘For example, Kvicha would prefer to play for Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Barcelona or maybe Manchester City; Kvaratskhelia has different goals and preferences.
‘He wants to be successful, and he is already having it. He is among the top 3 players in the world.’
Despite his recent contract extension with Napoli, Osimhen has been linked with Arsenal, Chelsea, and other top clubs in Europe. He was recently tipped to succeed in the Premier League by former Arsenal and Manchester City striker Emmanuel Adebayor.
