Elderson Echiejile To Miss Academica Match

Nigeria international Elderson Echiejile has been omitted from the Sporting Braga squad that will entertain Academica in the eighth round of matches in the Primeira Liga.

That means the left back will not have a chance to come face to face with international teammate John Ogu , who was named in the provisional 20 - man roster released by manager Conceição on Thursday afternoon.

It should be noted that Echiejile is in good physical condition, but the coach decided to leave him out due to technical reasons.

The 25 - year - old wing back has made 2 appearances in the Portugal’s topflight.
