Fowler Says Osimhen Is Not World-Class; Fans Debate Liverpool Comparison
Former Liverpool striker Robbie Fowler has reportedly questioned whether Victor Osimhen is world-class, while rating Alexander Isak and Hugo Ekitike among the elite forwards. The claim has sparked debate among Nigerian football fans. Osimhen led Napoli to the 2022/23 Serie A title, their first in 33 years, after scoring 26 league goals. He also won the African Footballer of the Year award. Supporters argue that Osimhen’s title-winning impact, pace and pressing make him one of Europe’s top strikers. Critics may point to the different demands of the Premier League and the need for sustained form. Is Fowler right, or has he underrated the Super Eagles forward?
