Napoli striker Victor Osimhen arrived at the team’s hotel ahead of their match against Udinese on Wednesday, September 27, 2023, and appeared distant from his teammates.
In a video shared by Napoli-based blogger Gennaro Del Vecchio, Osimhen greeted coach Santoro but did not acknowledge his teammates Demme and Zielinski.

Osimhen’s strained relationship with the club had been exacerbated after Napoli mocked him on social media for missing a penalty in their recent goalless draw against Bologna on Sunday, September 24, 2023.

The club’s TikTok account had posted a video of Osimhen protesting for a penalty and subsequently missing it, accompanied by laughter in the background.
Another video had labeled him as a “coconut.”
Although these videos have been removed, Osimhen’s agent, Roberto Calenda, confirmed their intention to pursue legal action against Napoli.

This situation has led to a noticeable disconnect between Osimhen and his teammates.
