Osimhen Named In Serie A Team Of Season, Lookman Loses Out

Despite Napoli’s stuttering in the justended season, striker Victor Osimhen did enough to earn a spot in the 2023/24 Serie A Team of the Season. Osimhen, last season, powered Napoli to their first Serie A title in 33 years but the Napolitano failed woefully in their bid to retain the league title this season, losing 11 times and winning only 13 of 37 league games to sit in 10th place heading to the last match of the season.

In the middle of the chaotic run of his club, Osimhen still distinguished himself after netting 15 goals and three assists in just 24 matches. This run earned him a place in the 23-man list unveiled on the official social media channels of the Italian Serie A on Saturday.

Interestingly, only Inter Milan’s Lautaro Martínez (24 goals) and Juventus’s Dušan Vlahovic (16) scored more goals than Osimhen in the Italian topflight. Both Martínez and Vlahovic are named to the Serie Team of the Season alongside Osimhen for their contributions.
