Nigeria and Napoli star Victor Osimhen has reportedly lashed out at the agent of one of his teammates for linking him with a move.
The 25-year-old striker is said to have labelled his teammate Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's agent Mamuka Jugeli "a piece of filth and a disgrace" after publicly alleging that the Super Eagles star will soon be playing his football in Saudi Arabia.

Osimhen is said to have rejected advances from Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal during the last transfer window and signed a new deal at Gli Azzurri in December that is believed to keep him at the club until 2026.
However, Jugeli suggested that despite the striker signing the contract, he will not remain at Napoli for the entire duration of his career.
"Victor Osimhen has signed a new contract, but do you really believe he'll play for Napoli for his entire career?" the agent said per the Daily Mail.
"I'll tell you in advance, he (Osimhen) will go to Saudi Arabia next summer. Napoli raised his salary but Kvicha wouldn't accept such a transfer even for a billion.
"For example, Kvicha would prefer to play for Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Barcelona or maybe Manchester City; Kvaratskhelia has different goals and preferences.
"He wants to be successful, and he is already having it. He is among the top 3 players in the world."
Osimhen, however, seemed to be infuriated by Jugeli's remarks and took to social media to express his anger.
"Dear Mamuka Jugeli, you are a piece of filth and a disgrace," the attacker wrote in an Instagram story.
"I'm embarrassed at your sense of reasoning".
"Dumb f*ck! Keep my name out of your mouth!"
