Victor Osimhen, Napoli’s Nigerian striker, has broken Cristiano Ronaldo’s four-year Serie A record of 2.56 metres.
In the 68th minute of their 3-0 victory away to Spezia, Osimhen leapt an incredible 2.58 metres above the crossbar and headed in his first goal of the match.
Corriere dello Sport reported that this was the highest jump ever in Italian football, breaking Ronaldo’s long-standing record set in 2019 against Sampdoria.
It is clear that Osimhen is truly a remarkable phenomenon who will surely go down as one of Serie A’s greatest goalscorers.
