By ABIRHIRE THOMAS…reporting from Abidjan
Super Eagles forward, Victor Osimhen, has been cleared by the team’s medical doctors to play in the semi-final of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations clash against Bafana Bafana of South Africa.
According to a report which quoted reliable source at the hotel where they left Victor Osimhen behind,that he cried as the teammates were leaving him from Pullman Hotel Abidjan, it stated that Osimhen is expected to be fit for Wednesday’s game.
The Napoli hitman has since travelled to Bouake, where he will join up with the rest of the squad, while leaving the hotel he told fans he will train this evening.
Doubts over his involvement arose on Monday after the team sent out a statement revealing that Osimhen was dealing with abdominal discomfort.
Osimhen, who has scored only once at the tournament, was left behind as the rest of the players travelled for the match. The news of his well being will be a major boost to the entire team and Nigerian football fans.
