The 24-year-old had the chance to score a hat-trick for Napoli when Luciano Spalletti’s side were awarded a penalty in the second half but passed it to Poland international, Piotr Zielinski.
“Zielinski asked if he could take the penalty and I said no problem. It doesn’t matter who scores as long as the team achieves success,”he told reporters.
“It’s the most important thing. I know my goals will come with or without penalties.”
Osimhen has scored four goals in five appearances in the UEFA Champions League for Napoli this season.
