Osimhen and Simon exempted themselves from the camp in Egypt.
They preferred to land directly in Morocco.
Nigeria is not departing Egypt until Thursday afternoon.
Ndidi, the new captain, is not yet in camp as well.
And we play Egypt tomorrow night.
Ndidi and Osimhen play in Turkey, the same as Onuachu who is already in camp.
We now know some of the Mafia in the team.
And obviously, excuses if things don’t go according to plan.
I thought all clubs must release their players on 14th.
