Damian, is a young boy from the United States, who loves Super Eagles forward, Victor Osimhen with an uncommon passion.
He was determined to meet with his idol at all cost and had to see the last AFCON as an opportunity to see his idol.
During AFCON, he begged his father to take him all the way to Morocco just to see his hero face to face.
Damian’s father obliged him, like most Western parents will likely do. They flew to Africa for the AFCON just for Damian to see Osimhen.
At the stadium, security stopped him from getting close, and Damian broke down in tears, thinking his dream was over. But when Osimhen heard about the sad little boy in the stands, he stepped down himself, took pictures with Damian, and signed the ball in the photo.
Imagine the pain and psycological trauma the boy and his father would have faced, if the little boy was denied an opportunity when he was looking at the promised land, Osimhen.
In that moment, Osimhen showed Damian that he is more than a football star — he is a true hero.
This is the human side of Osimhen, many seem not to know and understand that the Galatasaray star loves children and his fans, even though his passion to win always drives him a little bit to the edge.
