Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has opened up on the threat posed by the talismanic Victor Osimhen when Los Blancos face Napoli in the UEFA Champions League.

Osimhen has scored 5 goals in 8 games this season and will once again lead the charge when Napoli host Real Madrid on Tuesday night.

The Nigerian scored 5 goals in the Champions League last season on the way to scoring 31 goals in all competitions for Napoli.

Ancelotti speaks on fear of Osimhen

Ancelotti, whose side started with a 1-0 win over Union Berlin, is wary of the danger Osimhen poses.

"They are very good forwards who have really broken out in the last year, they have demonstrated their quality and shown they are top-level players,” Ancelotti told Real Madrid’s official website.

 “They have amazing talent with different characteristics. Kvaratskhelia is very strong one-on-one and Osimhen is very dangerous.”
