Rijeka Flop Theophilus Solomon Doubtful For Flying Eagles

Jairo Pachon, who handles the affairs of Rijeka flop Theophilus Solomon, has all but confirmed that Theophilus Solomon will not join the Flying Eagles camp ahead of the African Youth Championship in two months time.

The soon - to - be 19 - year  - old was handed a late invitation to the Nigeria Under 20 national team currently fine-tuning strategies in Kaduna under the guidance of coach Manu Garba.

But due to club commitments with Zadar in the Croatian topflight, he may have to wait to play his official game for the Nigeria youth team.

“We are waiting for his team to give us the approval. We do not know yet if he will come, ” said Jairo Pachon to allnigeriasoccer.com.

This season, the Rijeka loanee has made the starting line up 3 times out of a possible 19, scoring once before the winter break.
