Central African Republic head coach Raoul Savoy believes Victor Osimhen will be a threat to his team in this month’s 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, reports Completesports.com.
Three-time African champions will host the Wild Beasts in a matchday three encounter at the Teslim Balogun Stadium, Lagos on Thursday, October 7.
The reverse fixture will take place three days later in Douala, Cameroon.
Osimhen has been in impressive form for his Italian club Napoli this season with seven goals in his last five appearances for the Blues.

“I don’t like to talk about specific players because you know that football is a game we play with 11 players and substitutes,” Savoy told

“For now I think Osimhen is doing very well in Napoli, he is scoring a lot of goals.
“I like his style of play, powerful and a really good striker. For us, of course, it will be an honour to play against this class of players but for now, I think Osimhen is for me the best at the moment.”

Osihmen is overrated. Terem Moffi should take his place without delay.
This is a foreigner that is using Nigerian names lol what a fool. BOBBY IS THAT YOU?
Tell me is it normal? Last week this website carried 10 stories about different people praising Osihmen. There are far better strikers.
You are just seeking attention.Why didn’t clubs go out of their way to sign Moffi as Napoli did,afterall he also scored a good number of goals in Ligue 1 on his debut season just like Osimhen did when he was at ligue1.Should I also remind you that Osimhen played just a season before he snapped by Napoli
How can I be seeking attention? I am a self made millionaire. You better respect your elders.
Sorry o OnyebuchiMethuselah.Habakkuk.You are a disgrace to elders.You r comments says a lot about your personality.You need to work on yourself
Onyebuchi or whatever you are get out of here. I think Moffi has sponsored you and your people against Osihmen.
What are you smoking!
That’s the advantage of having players of immense quality in a team.The fear factor you put in your opponents,most times the game is won even before it gets started.
Indeed, the days of fear factor of our Darling super eagles is beginning to come back. 6 points in the two legs against CAR isn’t negotiable.
Okoye
Aina ekong balogun Collins
Onyeka Bonke Ariball
Kelechi Osihmen Simon
I think the only missing link in your line up is Alex Iwobi. Whether in form or not Iwobi starts for Gernot Rhor. So IWork for Bonke.
Iwobi is presently injure and to be replace my moffi
Akpeyi. Aina.omeruo.awaziem.collins. bonke.onyeka.iheanacho. ejuke.osimen.simon. the so call coach should go for this starting xi.
The killer squad is this.
Akpeyi
Akpoguma Awaziem Omeruo Bassey
Bonke
Aribo Iheanacho
Kalu Moffi Musa
There was no history of smoking in the book of Habakkuk, or na soackaway you sniff ni?
South Aficans de here oooooo. His mouth de smile
Oga, you missed the spelling of your own name.
I thought it was only Johnbull that doesn’t know how to spell his name, despite having being sent to school. Seems you have joined Johnbull 🙂
I know who this is like the back of my palm lol
I don’t think Rohr would start Bonke and Onyeka.One of them likely Onyeka but I would go for Shehu Abdullahi If I were the coach,but Onyeka plays in the EPL so for that reason should get the nod to partner Aribo and Iheanacho.
I JUST WATCHED FRANK ONYEKA PLAY FOR BRENTFORD VS WEST HAM AND I HAVE TO SAY I DON’T SEE ANYTHING THIS GUY BRINGS TO THE SUPER EAGLES APART FROM THE FACT HE IS PLAYING IN THE PREMIERSHIP. I MEAN HE DOESN’T HAVE BALL HOLDING SKILLS, HE CANT GIVE A GOOD PASS, HE WAS JUST RUNNING AROUND THE PITCH DOING NOTHING. WHENEVER HE HAS THE BALL THE OPPONENT TAKES IT FROM HIM EASILY. I DONT SEE THIS GUY DOING ANYTHING IN THE SUPER EAGLES.
HE ISNT WHAT THE TEAM NEEDS.
I’ve observed people on this site just hates Frank onyeka for nothing!
Same game I watched and applauded him, I knew his castigators will be here afterwards
Quite frankly,I laughed at who commented above saying onyeka did nothing vs westham lol..for ur information u ve to have eyes to see what some players do on d pitch I for one am so glad we got him in eagles ,d guy works n is very tidy..he did played very well vs arsenal in d first match where I actually watched him n am glad he is with us superb player onyeka..
Time will tell if onyeka frank is a “superb player” or not.
Playing a team like CAR isnt much of a challenge or yard stick fit for measuring the performance of a player but im willing to start from there.
Lets watch and see
Akpeyi. Aina.omeruo.awaziem.collins. bonke.onyeka.iheanacho. ejuke.osimen.simon. the so call coach should go for this starting xi.
