Osimhen On Same Level As Drogba But …… – Mourinho Speaks

Jose Mourinho, manager of AS Roma, believes Nigerian Victor Osimhen is on the same level as Chelsea legend Didier Drogba but needs to be more professional.

The Napoli forward was on fire as Luciano Spalletti’s side defeated Roma 2-1 in a league match on Sunday, taking his Serie A tally to 14 for the season.

While the former Chelsea manager praised Osimhen’s Serie A exploits, he believes the Nigerian must improve.

“And if you want me to compare him with Drogba, I would say, the level is there but Drogba would never dive,” the former Manchester United gaffer told a post-match press conference.

“If Victor can change that in his game, he is okay. If only I am at a club with a lot of money, I’ll buy him.”

Mourinho said he told the Nigerian “‘you scored an amazing goal, but you didn’t need to dive all the time’. That’s what I told him. That’s what I think.

“He scored an amazing goal. Even from my bench, I almost clapped, because it was an amazing goal.

“He did the same in Rome, he scored an amazing goal in Rome. So for me, he’s a fantastic player. But I repeat what I told him, he doesn’t need to dive.”
