Agent threatens legal fury: Napoli faces wrath for mocking Osimhen
In a shocking turn of events, Napoli striker Victor Osimhen’s agent, Roberto Calenda, has unleashed a storm of legal threats against the club. The reason? A video that ridiculed the player, initially posted and then mysteriously deleted from Napoli’s official TikTok account.
This video, which caused what Calenda describes as “very serious damage to the player,” has ignited a firestorm of controversy. Calenda did not mince words, declaring, “What happened today on Napoli’s official profile on the TikTok platform is not acceptable.”
In a statement released on the messaging platform X (formerly known as Twitter), Calenda made it abundantly clear that they are ready to wield the full force of the law to protect Victor Osimhen’s honor. The player, who has been a pivotal part of Napoli’s squad, deserves respect and dignity, not mockery.
Napoli, a club with a storied history, has yet to respond to these explosive allegations. As tensions escalate, the soccer world watches with bated breath to see how this jaw-dropping drama unfolds.
The video controversy comes on the heels of a frustrating match for Osimhen, where he missed a late penalty kick in a goalless draw against Bologna in Serie A. His reaction to being substituted during the game added fuel to the fire, as he appeared to voice his displeasure at coach Rudi Garcia, even shouting in protest.
However, Garcia swiftly downplayed the situation, seeking to restore calm amidst the storm. Nevertheless, the tempest stirred by the video mocking Osimhen shows no signs of abating.
With Napoli currently standing at seventh place in the Serie A standings, there’s a crucial match against Udinese on the horizon. Yet, the looming legal battle and the fallout from this controversy threaten to overshadow their footballing endeavors.
As the clock ticks down to the next match, the world waits with bated breath to see if Napoli will respond to these grave accusations or if Osimhen’s agent will indeed unleash the legal fury he has ominously promised.
