Victor Osimhen brutally snubs Napoli teammates as frosty clip shows fallout from TikTok video row
Victor Osimhen gave two of his Napoli teammates short shrift upon arriving at the hotel ahead of their clash with Udinese as his fallout with the club hits crisis point.
The striker, who scored 31 goals on their way to winning Serie A last season, is considering legal action against the club after various social media posts were posted mocking him over the past few days. The club have since deleted them but one was considered to be racially insensitive by many and another took a jibe at him for missing a penalty against Bologna.
Napoli's stance is that they will make no statement on the matter but Osimhen and his agent are believed to be furious with the club and considering their options. And he was frosty with two of his teammates, Diego Demme and Piotr Zielinski, upon arriving at the Hotel Serapide ahead of their league game with Udinese.
In a video shared by Italian journalist Gennaro Del Vecchio on Twitter, Demme is seen reaching out for a handshake as Osimhen arrives and approaches the stairs. But after embracing Team Manager Giuseppe Santoro, he completely snubs his two teammates sitting within a meter of him and makes straight for the door.
As things stand Osimhen has been included in the squad for Wednesday night's clash but his future at the club looks in serious doubt. Tottenham and Arsenal have been heavily linked recently and will be hoping to take advantage in January.
