Napoli forward Victor Osimhen suffered an injury as Napoli suffered a 3-2 defeat to Inter Milan in the Seria A.
The Nigerian international appeared to fracture his cheekbone during a clash of heads with Inter defender MILAN SKRINIAR. He was visibly stunned with his face swollen as he staggered off the pitch at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.
Osimhen had to be rushed to the San Raffaele Hospital for tests after he was diagnosed with head trauma.
It was an accidental clash of heads as both players went for the ball, but the Napoli striker was caught on the cheekbone by the back of Skriniar’s head and came off much worse in the duel.
Simone Inzaghi’s men blew the title race wide open as they reduced the gap at the top of the table with the hard-fought win against Luciano Spalletti’s side.
The defeat was Napoli’s first league loss of the current campaign but the side still sits top on 32 points ahead of AC Milan on superior goals while Inter lies in third with 28 points.
