Napoli's formidable forward, Victor Osimhen, is on the brink of a significant milestone as he prepares to mark his 100th Serie A appearance for reigning champions Napoli against Torino, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.

The eagerly anticipated clash will unfold at the iconic Diego Armando Maradona stadium on Friday.

Arriving from Ligue 1 outfit Lille in 2020, the 25-year-old has been a pivotal figure for Napoli, gracing the Serie A stage in 99 matches out of a possible 141.

Osimhen's impact has been nothing short of remarkable, with an impressive tally of 61 goals for Napoli in the Italian top-flight.

His instrumental role in Napoli's triumph in clinching their first Scudetto in over three decades last season was highlighted by his remarkable feat of 26 goals in just 32 league appearances.

Meanwhile, the Nigeria  international has been a top transfer target for top European clubs including Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea and Paris Saint Germain.
