‘We suffered a lot’ - Napoli star highlights Osimhen and Lukaku's differences in the team

Amir Rrahmani was in action for Napoli in the Italian side's 4-0 victory over Cagliari on Sunday.

The Italian side bounced back from their disappointing season-opening match with three straight wins in a row.

Lukaku has been instrumental in their wins, having scored two goals in his last three games for his new club.

Speaking on the victory, Rrahmani congratulated the players and coach for their hard work and said he hoped the winning streak would last.

Rrahmani told Sky Sport Italia via Tuttomercatoweb, "The credit goes to the whole group and the coach. Last year we suffered a lot and we hope to continue like this.”

Napoli now leads Serie A with nine points after the win, but should Inter Milan defeat Monza, they might fall to second place.

The defender also discussed the importance of the new signing, Lukaku and how different he is from Osimhen.

He continued, "Very much. In previous years we had Osimhen, who kept the ball less and looked more for depth.

"With Lukaku instead we can play even under pressure, he has a strong physique and helps us to go and get the second balls and close the actions."

Napoli has put their faith in Lukaku as the striker for their new project under Antonio Conte after Osimhen's departure.

With Lukaku hitting the back of the net in his last two games, Napoli have found a perfect replacement for Osimhen as they move in from the Super Eagles striker.
