Fulham defender, Calvin Bassey has expressed belief that his international teammate, Victor Osimhen, is well-suited for the challenges of the Premier League.

Osimhen has been a consistent subject of transfer speculation, with Chelsea, Manchester United, and Arsenal reportedly expressing interest in securing his services.

Despite the Forward recently extending his contract with Napoli, a deal that includes a release clause of €130 million, he remains a top priority signing.

“He is a joke — the only striker I know who can run a back line by himself,” Bassey said to The Athletic.

“He can run in behind, he can head, finish, he can do everything. The Prem would suit him. Hopefully, he comes at some point but I’d rather have him in my team than against him!”
