Fabio Capello, a seasoned coach, has praised Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, citing his fighting spirit and heading skills as two of his most important qualities.
According to Tutto Napoli, Capello praised Osimhen for his outstanding performances and contribution to the team’s triumph in an interview with the newspaper Marca.
Given their seasoned coach and talented roster, Capello thinks Napoli has a shot at winning the Champions League.
Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia were singled out by the former England manager as two players who significantly impact the team’s performance.
According to Capello, Osimhen’s fighting spirit is one of his most significant qualities. He is a player who never gives up and always fights until the end. This tenacity has been evident in Osimhen’s performances on the pitch, where he has consistently given his best for the team.

Capello also praised Osimhen’s heading ability. Osimhen’s height and strength make him a formidable opponent in the air, and he has scored some crucial goals with his head this season.
“Napoli can reach the final,” Capello said.
“They have an expert coach, they have quality players, and they have found others.
“Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia are two players who make the difference. One (Kvara) has a lot of quality, and the other (Osimhen) fights a lot and is impressive when he heads. The other teams, Milan, Juventus, Roma, and Inter, have lost a lot.
“Napoli have so far won easily in Italy, but also in the Champions League. They finished first against Liverpool, beating them in the group stage. Napoli are a reality; they are a very, very good team.”
Capello’s comments come at a time when Napoli are performing exceptionally well in Italy and Europe.
The Neapolitans sit top of Serie A and boast a massive 19-point advantage over their closest rivals.
Napoli have also reached the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League for the first time in history, with Osimhen scoring three of the club’s five goals against Eintracht Frankfurt in the round of 16.
Osimhen has 25 goals in all competitions this term – the most he has managed in a single season.
