Man City Striker Iheanacho, Chelsea Defender Omeruo Racing Against Time To Obtain Visa

Manchester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho and Chelsea defender Kenneth Omeruo are yet to arrive at the Super Eagles camp in France, a day before the national team confronts Mali in an international friendly.

The Nigeria Football Federation has informed via its official webpage that the two players are hoping to secure their visas by Thursday before heading to Rouen for international duty.

Allnigeriasoccer.com was informed on Wednesday that Porto defender Chidozie Awaziem will not be available for selection against Mali as a result of a visa hitch.

FK Haugesund stopper William Troost-Ekong was in action yesterday in the Norwegian Cup and is expected to arrive in France today, while Chippa United netminder Daniel Akpeyi has departed South Africa, according to his agent.

The Super Eagles will lock horns with  Les Aigles at the Stade Robert Diochon in Rouen on Friday night.
