Nigeria Vs Libya: Anthony Ujah In, Kenneth Omeruo Out

Nigeria vs Libya: Ujah in, Omeruo out By Admin Mainz 05 forward, Anthony Ujah, may make Super Eagles’ list for the back-to-back Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Libya next month. The 27-year-old played his way into the plan of coach Gernot Rohr after scoring twice in the Bundesliga in just three games this season from just 54 minutes of playing time as he has been used mostly as a substitute. Rohr initially said he was keeping tabs on the Chinese League returnee but according to our inside sources in the Nigeria Football Federation, the coach has decided to give him a chance in the squad for the games against Libya. Ujah last played for Nigeria three years ago in a friendly game against Niger Republic which the Eagles won 2-0 with the forward firing blanks as the goals were scored by Ahmed Musa and Moses Simon. Meanwhile, Kenneth Omeruo may not make it for the two games due to the injury as he is currently nursing at his new club, Leganes. Omeruo is yet to taste a minute of competitive action since his move to the Spanish side who are bottom of the table in the league after five rounds of games with just one point to their credit so far. Omeruo is presently injured as mentioned by Leganes Coach Mauricio Pellegrino Credit: newtelegraphonline
