AC Milan defender, Fikayo Tomori has confessed that Napoli’s Victor Osimhen is very difficult to hold down following their 1-0 win over Napoli in a Serie A clash on Sunday.
Tomori was positioned to mark the Nigeria international, which he executed perfectly, preventing the Napoli number 9 from scoring.
Tomori, who chose to represent the England national team ahead of Nigeria, escaped punishment when he fouled Osimhen in the box with the referee and VAR looking the other way.
After the game which favoured his side and took them back to the top of the Serie A table, DAZN asked the England international to name the most difficult forwards to contain in the league.
“There are many strong forwards in Serie A. Obviously Osimhen, tonight’s opponent, is very strong: fast and difficult to mark,” he said.
“But there are also Beto, Lautaro, Dzeko, and many other strikers in this league. All very strong. But both when I play with Pierre and Alessio, we play our game to avoid threats,” he said.
