Napoli Defender, Juan Jesus believes having Victor Osimhen back from injury will give the Partenopei an extra incentive to beat AC Milan.
Luciano Spalletti’s side lost the first leg 1-0 last week with Osimhen missing the tie as a result of a muscle injury.
The Nigerian was back in action in Napoli’s 3-3 draw against Hellas Verona last weekend.
Napoli and AC Milan will lock horns again in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-final tie at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium on Tuesday.
Jesus insisted that they are confident of beating their Serie A rivals with Osimhen back in the squad.
“I think that is a problem for the Milan defence, as Victor is our top scorer, he is in good shape and always shows that grit and hunger to do more,” the Brazilian told a press conference on Monday.”
The 24-year-old has scored four goals in five appearances for the Partenopei in the competition this season.
