Brentford have sent a good luck message to Frank Onyeka, ahead of today’s 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers between the Super Eagles of Nigeria and the Leone Stars of Sierra Leone.
The Eagles will kickoff their campaign in the qualifiers when they entertain the Leone Stars inside the Moshood Abiola Stadium in Abuja.
Onyeka is one of the players invited by new head coach Jose Peseiro for the fixture which would be played behind closed doors.
The former Midtjylland star last featured for the Eagles in the second leg of the 2022 World Cup qualifier against Ghana in Abuja but went off injured.
Aside Onyeka, Brentford also wished Guinea defender Julian Jeanvier and David Raya of Switzerland good luck in the AFCON qualifiers and UEFA Nations League respectively.
“David Raya, Frank Onyeka, Julian Jeanvier.
“Good luck to three of our players who could gain international minutes today,” Brentford wrote on Twitter.

I think Onyeka was pivotal in the super eagles midfield agaisnt Ghana in Abuja,no thanks to injury which led to his early substitution,Shehu Abdullahi replaced him and had a nightmarish game and this didnt help our push to get the much needed goal.
I was let down because I was one of those who stood up for Shehu.I think his invitation came too quick,should have been on hold after that poor shift until he proves through his club performances that he deserves another look in.
