VICTOR OSIMHEN has been spotted appearing to snub his team-mates while arriving at Napoli's hotel.
The Serie A champions are set to host Udinese this evening.
Osimhen, 24, threatened legal action against his club yesterday via his agent after its official TikTok account posted a pair of videos mocking him for his penalty miss, which have since been deleted.

Another featured the caption "gimme penalty please" and showed him then missing a spot-kick.
Arriving at the team hotel with EarPods in, the Nigerian was spotted shaking hands with team manager Guiseppe Santoro.

"A video mocking Victor was first made public and then, but now belatedly, deleted.
