Serie A: Osimhen Risks Ban In Italy
~1.1 mins read
Victor Osimhen risks being banned for a couple of matches in the Serie A this season after an awful incidence on Sunday during Napoli's game against Venezia.

The Nigerian striker was shown a straight red card for a supposed punch on Venezia defender Daan Heymans.

The despicable incident happened barely 23 minutes into the Serie A season opener at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.



A corner was about to come in and Osimhen was infuriated with the somewhat rough man-marking from Heymans.

Osimhen appearedt to have shove the defender away, but in so doing he turned and caught Heymans on the throat with a fist.

This was considered to be a punch and the referee opted for a straight red card.

While Osimhen is sure to miss Napoli's next against Genoa next week, there are fears he may still get a longer ban.

This is the second time that Osimhen has been sent off in the Napoli jersey.



Recall that during the Europa League win away to Real Sociedad in October 2020, Osimhen got the matching orders after a second bookable offence.

Osimhen who contributed 10 goals and three assists in his debut season with the Partenopei in 30 competitive appearances for the club was hoping for an improved performance this term.
