SUPER Eagles defender, Ogenyi Onazi says he hopes to be
fit for Monday’s international friendly match against Burkina Faso after the
injury he sustained during Nigeria’s 1-1 draw against Senegal on Thursday
night.
The Trabzonspor of Turkey defender, who captained the
Super Eagles against the Teranga Lions, got the injury in the 25th minute of
the encounter after Mame Biram Diouf of Stoke City clattered into his back with
dangerous knee challenge. Onazi was stretchered off and was replaced by John
Ogu.
However, the injury might not be as bad as first feared as
the 24 year old was spotted watching the remainder of the match at the stands while
sitting beside injured goalkeeper Carl Ikeme.
Onazi, who uploaded less than a minute video of the
challenge by the Senegalese on his Instagram page immediately after the match, expressed
appreciation to his fans for all the get-well-soon messages.
“Thanks for all
your messages everything is under control hopefully will be fit for Monday game
by his grace God bless. #supereaglesofnigeria 💪🏿💪🏿🇳🇬,”
the former Lazio midfielder said via @onaziogenyi.
