V. Osimhen

Osimhen's 2023/24 season, read from the numbers

In 2023/24, V. Osimhen was a regular for Napoli in the Serie A: 24 appearances and 1913 minutes, averaging 80 minutes per outing. Per 90 minutes that is 0.6 goals per 90, 3.0 shots per 90 and 59% of his shots on target — the rate profile behind Osimhen's totals.

Set against Osimhen's own record, 2023/24 reads differently: he has managed 26 in a season before, so 12 is well short of his own mark. Discipline is part of the picture for Osimhen: 6 bookings in 24 appearances, one every 4.0 games and 1 red card.
