Super Eagles assistant captain Eddy Onazi has lost his fitness battle and has withdrawn from the Nigeria squad to face Algeria and Argentina.
The central midfielder is expected to spend the next 2-3 weeks on the sidelines after sustaining an injury in Trabzonspor’s goalless draw away at Kayserispor on Saturday.
A special doctor has been assigned to him as he hopes to bounce back after the international break.
Despite his absence, Onazi confident the team will have a good outing in both games.
