Exclusive: Osimhens Market Value Will Be High Unuanel

Former Kwara United coach, Samson Unuanel believes Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhens market value will be high after winning the 2023 Africa Footballer of the Year Award.

Recall that the Nigerian international defeated the duo of Egypts Mohamed Salah and Moroccos Hakimi to clinched the award.

Mondays award capped off a sterling year for the Super Eagles forward whose historic feat in the imperial Moroccan city of Marakesh ended Nigerias 24-year-old wait for Africas top individual prize. Legendary Kanu Nwankwo was the last Nigerian to win the award and that was in 1999.

However, in a chat with Completesports.com, Unuanel stated that the Napoli strikers market value will shoot up and that top European clubs will be battling to sign him.

This is a great achievement for Osimhen considering his efforts for Napoli last season and how he his goals help the team to win the Serie A title.

Winning the Africa Footballer Of the Year Award is a great feat for him and this will definitely spur him to put more effort in his game for both club and country.

I wont be surprise if this award shoot up his market value when the transfer window opens in January. For sure, Osimhen has done himself a good favour and I am happy for him.
