The Super Eagles will not give up on having Victor Osimhen at next year’s AFCON and have already contacted Napoli to fully ascertain how long he will out after his surgery.
Osimhen was operated on yesterday to repair fracture in his eye socket and cheekbones.
Napoli announced the surgery was successful but he will be sidelined by as many as 90 days (three months).
This will effectively rule him out of the AFCON in Cameroon, which kicks off on January 9, 2022.
According to La Republica, Nigeria officials have now contacted Napoli obviously to ascertain how long the star striker will be out and whether there is a chance he could still make it for the AFCON.
He was the Super Eagles leading scorer in the AFCON qualifiers with five goals.
The problem with oshimen is that he forget that he is a striker and his job is to strike. He husles too much, he is too rough as a striker and he collected to many cards. He should refine his game more. He is good though
Is that why he got injured?
