There are strong indications that former Kano Pillars winger Ahmed Musa may still feature for the Dream Team V in their must win London Olympic Games qualifier against the Vijana stars of Tanzania this weekend at the Samuel Ogbemudia stadium.
Ahmed Musa suffered a minor back strain while in action for the Super Eagles.
The player who helped his Dutch club VVV Venlo remain in the Dutch top flight is expected to report to the Dream Team V Prestige Hotel camp tomorrow for medical examination by the team’s physician.
The move is to ascertain whether or not the player would be fit to prosecute the game against Tanzania.“This is a must win game for us.
And we want to put in all availableresources at our disposal to ensure that we get the ticket for the final eight tournament.” I spoke with Ahmed and he said he would be here so let’s wait for him to come. Like you already know Anthony Ujah, Nosa Igiebor and Odion Igalo along side Rabiu Ibrahim are all ruled out so if Ahmed can make the game it would be a plus for us”declared National U-23 coach Austin Eguavoen.
Meanwhile Warri Wovles striker Ekigho Ehiosun has expressed delight over his late invitation to the Dream team V Prestige Hotel Camp.
“I am very happy for this invitation because a lot has been said about me dumping this team which is not true. I thank coach Eguavoen for still having confidence in me. I wish I even had a jet I would have flown straight from Bayelsa to Benin immediately after our game”Ehiosun stated humorously on arrival to the team’s camp.
The team had two training sessions on Monday.
