Osimhen hit the back of his head on the pitch after falling.<\/p>\n

He was rushed to the ambulance at the side of the pitch and taken to the local hospital in Bergamo for tests.<\/p>\n

A Napoli statement has now confirmed Osimhen has been diagnosed with head trauma, but the other tests all came back clear.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, there are no other red flags from the tests, which he undertook at the Papa Giovanni XXIII hospital in Bergamo.<\/p>\n

He will remain in Bergamo under observation before he is discharged.<\/p>\n

Osimhen has had numerous health problems since joining Napoli, as he dislocated his shoulder on international duty in November and contracted COVID-19 over the Christmas break.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
