According to Tomori, the former Napoli striker Victor Osimhen stands out for his physical presence and tireless work rate on the pitch.
“Osimhen is a force of nature; he never stops running,” Tomori said, emphasizing the striker’s constant movement and ability to pressure defenders throughout matches.
The defender also had high praise for Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman, describing him as one of the quickest and most unpredictable attackers he has encountered.
“Lookman is also incredibly difficult to mark — he’s very quick and moves the ball with impressive speed,” Tomori explained.
Tomori, who has faced Lookman in Serie A clashes against Atalanta B.C., added a lighthearted remark about their on-field rivalry.
“I even joked with him that if he had joined Inter Milan, we wouldn’t be friends anymore,” he said.
Both Osimhen and Lookman have established themselves as key attacking figures for Nigeria’s national team, combining pace, technical ability, and goal-scoring instincts. Their performances in European football have continued to draw praise from opponents and analysts alike.
Tomori’s comments further underline the growing reputation of Nigerian attackers across Europe’s top leagues, with Osimhen and Lookman widely regarded as two of the most dangerous forwards currently representing the Super Eagles.
