Real Madrid CEO, Emilio Butragueno warns Napoli are ‘a very dangerous opponent’ especially because of Victor Osimhen.

Los Blancos will face the Scudetto winners in Group C in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League.

Sporting Braga and Bundesliga outfit Union Berlin are the other teams in the group.

“Napoli are a very dangerous opponent, so we need to be extremely wary, because they have players of enormous talent.

“Yes, (Osimhen and Kvicha Kvaratskhelia) they are fantastic players, but they are Napoli players,” Butragueno told reporters in the mixed zone.

Osimhen contributed five goals as Napoli made it to the quarter-finals last season.

The Nigeria international was also top scorer in Serie A last season with 26 from 32 games.
