The player has however realised his mistake and appealed to Napoli supporters to forgive his ignorance .

“I was wrong to attend a party, I’m sorry for what happened,” he wrote on Instagram.

“I was wrong to go to Nigeria right now even though I have so much affection for my brothers. Wrong to participate in a surprise party without realising the gravity of what I was doing. I apologize to the club, the coach, the team and the supporters.”

Osimhen may likely get fined by Napoli for breaching Covid-19 rules according to reports by Goal.com.
