Victor Osimhen is a footballer who rarely flaunts his private moments on social media. However, the Chelsea target recently decided to break protocol and show off his beautiful daughter, Hailey, while dropping a cryptic post on social media.
In four beautiful slides shared on his Instagram handle, the Napoli frontman could be seen beaming with smiles as he shared quality fatherly moments with Hailey.
All the pics tell of a Dad’s passionate love for his daughter. However, the footballer spiced up the post with an intriguing message which reads;
”Life is going to life no matter what. Sh*t happens. How you respond to it, is what sets you apart from others. You go through it and you grow through it. There isn’t a tool to fix it. It’s all preparations.”
After the post, he then closed the slide with a photo of him taking a walk with little Hailey, who was clinging to his fingers as they strolled through.
It is the third time the Nigeria forward has flaunted Hailey after he recently celebrated her first birthday with his Germany-based Cameroonian lover and mother of the child, Stefan Ladewig.
On the cryptic message included in his post, it is pertinent to note that this is not the first time the footballer has engaged his fans with such. The 25-year-old had always tried to balance his heroic footballing career with titbits of wisdom and deep reflection.
However, the timing of the post could point to sundry issues that have serenaded his career recently.
We reported earlier of his furious bust-up with former Nigeria Super Eagles head coach, Finidi George after the latter accused him of pompously rejecting a call to play for the national team.
Speaking in viral footage, the highly-rated forward admitted he has lost his respect for Finidi who is now Enyimba’s head coach.
His furious reaction was followed by reports he had been banned from Nigeria Super Eagles team before the report was debunked by Nigeria Football Federation secretary Mohammed Sanusi.
Amidst the conflicting reports on his place in the Nigeria national team, the footballer was later seen in the streets of Nigeria’s capital, Abuja, having a nice time with top football figures and personalities in Nigeria.
After the Abuja touchdown, he attended the wedding of one of Nigeria and Africa’s most popular music artists David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido.
