Victor Osimhen had a funny reaction to his Super Eagles teammate's recent post on social media.

In a delightful display of friendship and brotherhood, Victor Osimhen couldn’t resist poking fun at his Super Eagles teammate Calvin Bassey after the latter shared a shirtless photo on social media. 

Bassey, fresh off a pulsating 2-2 draw between Fulham and Bournemouth, took to Instagram to showcase a heartwarming gesture: gifting his match shirt to a young fan.

The 24-year-old defender had played the full match at Craven Cottage, demonstrating his defensive ability with impressive stats—most passes completed, highest number of tackles won, and several crucial recoveries. 

After the game, despite the disappointment of not securing a win or keeping a clean sheet, Bassey’s spirit shone through as he reflected on the year, posting,

“Ending 2024 at the Cottage. So much more to push for & achieve next year! See you all then,” alongside a photo of himself and the grateful young fan.

Osimhen’s reaction

Known for his lively personality, Osimhen jumped into the comments section to lighten the mood, posting, “Your six-pack don show no worry,” followed by a string of laughing emojis. 

This playful teasing highlighted Bassey’s impressive physique, showcasing not only their friendly banter but also the strong bond they share off the pitch.

Bassey quickly fired back, “Now they will understand why I go gym,” also choosing to include laughing emojis to keep the friendly exchange rolling. 

Their light-hearted back-and-forth was a reflection of the essential moments that boost team morale.

Such playful interactions have been widespread with the current Super Eagles players and are paramount for maintaining chemistry and positivity within the squad. Both players are key figures in the team, and their relationship signifies a deeper sense of unity that transcends the football pitch.

While Bassey reflects on a year filled with growth and challenges, moments like the one shared with Osimhen remind him—and all his fans—of the importance of humour, charity, and friendship in both sports and life.
