Mbappe, Haaland, and Osimhen ranks among 10 World Most Valuable Players for 2023/2024 season
In the 2023/2024 football season, the top 10 most valuable footballers in the world, as listed by Transfermarkt, are a blend of established stars and emerging talents.
Napoli players starve Osimhen of supply
While Inter Milan played to their strength, giving the ball to players like Thuram and Çalhanoğlu, who could cause any team danger, Napoli did the exact opposite, denying their star player of service when he was in some good positions.
In the first 45 minutes, Osimhen showed his frustration after calling for the ball but not getting it when he was in the box. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who linked up very well with the Nigerian last season, and Politano were guilty of going solo or passing sideways when a pass to Osimhen would have been the better option.
All of these came to bite Napoli as Hakan Çalhanoğlu drilled home a thunderous strike to give the Nerazzurris the lead going into the half-time break. 15 minutes into the restart, Nicolo Barella added a second for Inter Milan.
Napoli did try to go long finding Osimhen but it was now a little too late. Yann Sommer drew a smart save from an Osimhen’s header. In the end, Marcus Thuram applied a deft finishing touch after good work from Juan Cuadrado.
