Atletico Belaeres
midfielder, Raheem Lawal, might miss out of the Super Eagles versus
Brave Warriors of Namibia World Cup qualifier on Sunday, following a
battle for visa regularization in Spain.
Lawal, was exquisite in the
midfield when the Super Eagles played Peru in a friendly last week and
was thought to be in Stephen Keshi’s plan for Sunday’s duel.
Super Eagles
Scribe, Dayo Enebi Achor, said he has not relented in ensuring that the
player’s papers are regularized. “We are still expecting him anytime
from now and we will not relent until he arrives the country to join his
colleagues in camp”, he said.
It’s however
thought that even if Lawal arrives camp on Tuesday or Wednesday latest,
Head Coach, Stephen Keshi may have no room to assess him properly for a
game as crucial as a World Cup qualifier.
He may have to wait for the
away tie next week against Malawi to prove his mettle. Though, nothing
has yet been ruled out.
Meanwhile,
Italy based duo of Nnamdi Oduamadi and Obiorah Nwankwo, joined camp
Tuesday afternoon, to swell the number of players in the national team
to 26.
They were part of the evening training and hustling for shirts
ahead of Sunday’s clash against the Brave Warriors.
