Victor Osimhen was seen in his birthday video which made the club management to blame him for reckless and unhealthy attitude.
The video served as an evidence to the club as it was assumed that he could have contracted coronavirus in Lagos, Nigeria.
It must be recalled that Osimhen celebrated his birthday in style in Lagos recently without wearing a face mask or observing social distancing with a guest artist also invited.
The club and the coaching staff led by Genarro Gattuso are not pleased with what they witnessed on the video and his return to the pitch will be further delayed.
