Which video was quickly deleted. Not fast enough, however, to calm the anger of the 24-year-old Nigerian international striker's agent, Roberto Calenda. "What happened today on Naples' official profile on the TikTok platform is not acceptable. A video mocking Victor was first made public and then belatedly deleted.

He continued: "We reserve the right to take legal action and take any useful initiative to protect Victor."
