Nollywood actor IK Ogbonna has openly expressed his support for Victor Osimhen in light of the player’s unsuccessful transfer endeavors, while also responding to his detractors.
Victor Osimhen was rumored to be on the verge of a transfer to Chelsea and received a significant offer from the Saudi Arabian club Al-Ahli during the recent transfer window; however, no agreement was finalized.
Consequently, he has been excluded from Napoli’s main squad, with his jersey number now allocated to Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku.
In his endorsement of the Super Eagles forward, IK Ogbonna emphasized Osimhen’s remarkable talent and impact on the sport, pointing out that he was a central figure in transfer discussions this season.
He conveyed his dissatisfaction with the criticism aimed at Osimhen by Nigerians, emphasizing that the player merits support instead of condemnation.
IK Ogbonna’s message to Victor Osimhen
In a lengthy note, he wrote: “@victorosimhen9 you’ve been at the center of the most important transfer story this window, a testament to your incredible talent and the impact you’ve made on football. While no one knows the full story behind the decisions made, true strength lies in making choices and standing by them with integrity. Real men take responsibility, and I believe that whatever decision you made was the right one at the time.
“It’s disheartening to see some voices from Nigeria coming at you with the wrong words when they should be lifting you up. You come from a place where you are massively respected, and the world needs to see that. You are the King of African Football, and your accomplishments make us proud every single day.
“Victor, we love and respect all that you’ve achieved. As a Chelsea fan, I would have loved to see you grace Stamford Bridge with your brilliance, but there’s always time. Keep shining, and remember that you have the unwavering support of those who believe in you.”
