How I wish he can join up quickly with the rest of the squad…it will be exciting honestly…
I predicted this. I said Boniface, Osimhen and Lookman should stay behind because they have a good thing going on and the club team needs them most. Especially Boniface with Bayer Leverkusen being in 1st place in Germany. Players always come out injured playing for Nigeria, its nothing new.
This is my previous comment on the squad release:
Osimhen and Boniface should of stayed with their club. Especially boniface, bayer Leverkusen is leading and with his presence gone I wouldnt be surprised if they fall. Cant risk a good thing for mediocrity and going through challenges. And watch them go back to their club injured like always
