Osimhen said he grew up in (Olusosun) one of the poorest city of Lagos and did all sorts of menial jobs including risking his safety to hawk in the busy traffic of Lagos, just to support his family.

According to him, everything about his life has been a struggle for survival. “While other kids were enjoying their youth,” Victor said he “was fighting for life”.

The former Lille frontman also said he looks up to Didier Drogba for inspiration and is working towards becoming the African player of the year.
