Nigerian footballer Victor Osimhen has explained the reason behind wearing a protective mask during matches.
He shared the details in a recent conversation with media figure Daddy Freeze.
Osimhen disclosed that the mask is necessary because of a metal plate implanted in his face.
The striker mentioned undergoing facial surgery where a bone fragment was removed.
Initially hesitant, Osimhen complied after doctors emphasized the urgency of the procedure.
“The doctor insisted on immediate surgery. There’s metal in my face now,” he revealed.
