John Ogu Issued Visa, Jets Off To Poland For International Duty

Hapoel Beer Sheva midfielder John Ogu is set to report for international duty at the Super Eagles get-together in Wrocław before the end of the day.

Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that he picked up his visa to Poland on Monday morning, and is hoping to arrive the Radisson Blu Hotel tonight.

The central midfielder's headed goal in the 31st minute was enough for Hapoel Beer Sheva to claim all three points in their first match of the playoffs against Bnei Yehuda.

Former Watford star Odion Ighalo will also report to camp today after a 15-hour flight from Changchun, while Chippa United goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi has already been issued a visa ahead of his trip to Wrocław.

It remains to be seen if the Super Eagles will hold their first training session today as some of the invited players are unlikely to meet the 1300 hours deadline set by the Nigerian Federation.

Nigeria will take on Poland in their second pre-World Cup friendly at the Municipal Stadium on Friday, March 23 before traveling to London the following day to prepare for the friendly against Serbia at the Hive Stadium.
