The Italian football giant Napoli FC is working conscientiously to quash the match ban placed on the Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen before their match against Juventus next week.

Osimhen was red-carded for his ungentle man conduct by the center referee-Gianluca Aureliano in their first match of the season against Venezia.

However, Napoli has Kicked off legal processes to have the ban reduced so that they could have a full complement of the first team against Juventus on matchday three.

Meanwhile, the President of the Italian Serie A Gabriele Gravina has refused to absolve the Nigerian, Venezia midfielder Daan Heymans and referee Gianluca Aureliano of any wrongdoing in the raging controversy generated by the red-card incidence.

The Napoli fans had clamped down heavily on the Italian referee Aureliano for giving Osimhen a marching order midway in the first half of the encounter without communicating with his assistant referee to ascertain the cause of Osimhen’s reaction.

Although, the referee missed the incident where the Napoli striker was fouled by Venezia midfielder Heymans but saw the Super Eagles striker’s retaliatory move.

It was Osimhen’s retaliatory move that formed the basis of the center referee match report that nailed the Super Eagles striker.

But Gravina is convinced that all the three parties involved were wrong, with Osimhen bearing the most brunt because he retaliated. The top football administrator, however, wants everyone to move on from the ugly incident.

“Everyone is wrong and Osimhen has been wrong first,”.

“So, I don’t want to judge what our judges are doing right now; they are very caring professionals. Let’s try not to poison the wells from the first day; let’s enjoy this championship.”
