Super Eagles and Napoli forward Victor James Osimhen, stands to earn up to 187 million naira from his team's upcoming match against Udinese tonight.

Osimhen, who struggled with injuries throughout the season, has managed to start in 20 league matches for last season's Serie A Champions. Despite his limited appearances, the 25-year-old striker boasts an impressive record of 14 goals and two assists.

Tonight, Osimhen aims to add to his tally by securing his 15th goal of the season against Udinese, following his recent penalty goal in the 2-2 draw with Roma.

The match at the Bluenergy Stadium in Udine holds significant importance for both teams. Napoli is keen on securing a spot in European competitions for the upcoming season, while Udinese is determined to climb out of the relegation zone.

According to Il Napoli, Osimhen has a contractual clause that would reward him with 125 thousand euros if he reaches 15 league goals this season. With a crucial matchup on the horizon, Osimhen has the opportunity to cash in on this incentive.

Reportedly linked with moves to Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain in recent weeks, Osimhen is motivated to leave Italy on a high note, with a focus on securing European qualification for Napoli.

Napoli, currently ranked ninth in the Serie A standings with 50 points from 34 games, faces Udinese, who sits in 18th place with 29 points. The match kicks off at 7:45 p.m. tonight.
