Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen made headlines off the pitch once again as he joined friends in Lagos to celebrate Eid-el-Kabir, Soccernet.ng reports.

The Napoli forward has been in the news recently over his uncertain future at the Italian club. He notably turned down a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal, which is a decision that has sparked mixed reactions across social media.

Reports suggest that the Nigerian international is currently focused on enjoying his holiday with friends and family in Lagos. In a recent outing, Osimhen was spotted at what appeared to be a local restaurant.

In a light-hearted moment that caught the attention of fans, Osimhen ordered 10 wraps of amala, requesting it be served with ewedu, gbegiri, and assorted meats.

In the video, the Napoli star arrived casually dressed and in high spirits as he waited for his meal. Osimhen’s love for Nigerian cuisine is well-documented—he has previously revealed that amala is his favourite local dish.

“I eat a lot—eba to be precise. When I’m there, I eat okro. In Nigeria, I used to eat amala. That’s my favourite food,” he once shared.

Away from his off-pitch antics, Osimhen recently helped his team clinch the Turkish Süper Lig title and Turkish Cup during a season-long loan move following a fallout with Napoli’s management.

The Nigerian striker scored 37 goals in 41 appearances for the Yellow-Reds, a performance that has attracted interest from several top European clubs, including Manchester United and Arsenal.

From all indications, the Napoli-owned striker remains unfazed by the transfer speculation surrounding his future. Instead, he appears more focused on enjoying his time back home—reconnecting with family, friends, and, of course, his beloved local dishes.
