Nigeria will be without their talisman Victor Osimhen for their World Cup qualifier against Bafana Bafana after he was ruled out with a shin injury.
Osimhen was substituted in the 35th minute of Nigeria's match against Rwanda and will not travel to South Africa for Tuesday's game, as mentioned by SoccerLaduma . Reports indicate that the player woke up with discomfort from the injury, forcing him to miss the clash.
This development presents a challenge for Nigeria's coach, Eric Chelle, who must now decide on a replacement from options like Cyriel Dessers, Ademola Lookman, or Tolu Arokodare, the latter of whom scored the winning goal against Rwanda after coming off the bench.
