Kelechi Iheanacho has continued to shine and shine, while Victor Osimhen returned to training as the Super Eagles get set to take on host nation Cote d’Ivoire in a decisive AFCON Group A match tomorrow.
Tuesday evening training was behind closed doors, but various accounts informed SCORENigeria that Leicester City striker was again outstanding and even scored a spectacular bicycle kick goal.
“He is in the mood to play,” a source simply told SCORENigeria
“He may well be the joker for the Super Eagles against the host country.”
The other cheering news from the team is that star striker Victor Osimhen trained fully after he was excused from the Monday session.
Coach Jose Peseiro told reporters that Osimhen did not train Monday after he complained of some niggles.
Besides injured Alhassan Yusuf, Fenerbache defender Bright Osayi-Samuel also did not train.
He said he suffered food poisoning, which has caused a running stomach and weakness.
Training was very competitive as all the players tried to catch the eye of the coach, who picks the team.
