Ebuehi Targets Fifth Super Eagles Cap Vs DRC: I'm Recovering Good

Published: May 15, 2018

ADO Den Haag's Tyronne Ebeuhi has dispelled fears about his fitness before linking up with the Nigerian national team at their training camp in Uyo next week.

The Dutch-born right-back is on the list of 30 players summoned to a pre-World Cup get-together, from which 23 players will be selected to defend the colours of Nigeria in Russia next month.

ADO Den Haag celebrated Ebuehi's most important call-up to the Super Eagles to date but have noted that he was bothered by groin problems in the last weeks of the season.

The 22-year-old appeared in 28 games in the Eredivisie this term but last played for ADO Den Haag on April 14.

When asked if he would be available for the friendly against Democratic Republic of Congo, Ebuehi told AOIFootball : ''Yes. I’m recovering good, so no problem''.

Ebuehi made his full debut for the Nigerian national team in their 2-0 loss to Serbia at the Hive on March 27 and has figured in all of Nigeria's friendlies over the past year, taking his appearances to four.
