Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Former Inter Milan star, Christian Vieri, has picked the better striker between Napoli\u2019s Victor Osimhen and Juventus\u2019 Dusan Vlahovic.<\/p>\n

Vlahovic and Osimhen, who are about the same age, are widely regarded as the best young strikers in Serie A.<\/p>\n

But Vieri believes Vlahovic is a better striker than Osimhen because the Serbian is more prolific in front of goal than the Nigerian international.<\/p>\n

Speaking during the broadcast of Napoli\u2019s Serie A 1-0 defeat to AC Milan at the weekend, Vieri said on DAZN: \u201cThey [Victor Osimhen and Dusan Vlahovic] are both strong, but I would take Vlahovic.<\/p>\n

\u201cDusan scores more goals than the Nigerian right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, former Crystal Palace star, Nicola Ventola, agreed with Vieri: \u201cI too would choose Vlahovic between the two. If I could, I would take them both.\u201d<\/p>\n
