I'm ready for AFCON, Osimhen says

By Our Correspondent



Super Eagles and Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen, has assured Nigerians that he is ready for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) schedule to take place in January, in Cameroon, if invited by senior national team handlers.

Osimhen confirmed his availability to the Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Sunday Dare, and the NFF President Amaju Pinnick, during a phone call in Abuja, the nation's capital.

The striker returned to training some days ago after undergoing surgery following the horrific face injury sustained in a serie A clash last month.

Osimhen also took to his verified Twitter handle to announce his readiness to be part of the continental football showpiece in Cameroon. 

"I am 100% ready to represent Nigeria at the 2021 AFCON, if I am picked by the coaches," Osimhen said.
