Napoli denies authorising doll with Osimhen’s features

Victor Osimhen’s Italian club, SSC Napoli, on Thursday, distanced themselves from a doll that bears a resemblance to their Nigerian striker.

The doll is called “Cicciobello Bomber”.

“With reference to the news, which appeared on numerous online information sites, relating to the imminent marketing of a children’s game called “Cicciobello Bomber”—a doll that reproduces the features of the player Victor Osimhen portrayed wearing a uniform clearly referable to the shirt from the Club’s first team – the SSCN specifies that this is an unofficial product, the creation of which has not been authorised in any way by the Club,” the club said in a statement on Thursday.
