Victor Osimhen has named his “dream” move should he leave Napoli.

The Nigeria striker has threatened to take Napoli to court over a video on TikTok appearing to mock him for missing a penalty.

Osimhen, who was the star man as the Italian side claimed their first Scudetto in three decades last season, is reserving "the right to take legal action" over the social media post.

The clip showed Osimhen missing a penalty against Bologna on Saturday, accompanied by a sped-up voice dubbed over the top.

Osimhen's agent Roberto Calenda said the post was "not acceptable". In a statement, he said: "A video mocking Victor was first made public and then, but now belatedly, deleted.

"A serious fact that causes very serious damage to the player and adds to the treatment that the boy is suffering in the last period between media trials and fake news. We reserve the right to take legal action and any useful initiative to protect Victor."

The Nigerian’s current deal runs until 2025, with him having yet to commit to new terms with the Serie A team. Arsenal, Chelsea and United have been among those linked with a move for the striker in recent months.

Indeed, in March Osimhen admitted his desire to play in the Premier League.

After being named 'Best Foreign Athlete of the Year' by the Italian Foreign Press Association, Osimhen said: "I think playing in one of the top five leagues in the world is an amazing feeling for me.

"A lot of people worldwide consider the Premier League as the best and the strongest league but now I'm in one of the best leagues in the world which is the Italian Serie A.

"I'm working so hard to make sure that I achieve my dream of playing in the Premier League someday but like I said, it's a process and I just want to keep on this momentum and continue to do well."
