Odion Ighalo out of Algeria, Argentina clash
Super Eagles forward Odion Ighalo has been ruled out of Nigeria’s upcoming games against Algeria and Argentina next month after picking up an injury for his team.
Ighalo is set to be out for a period of three weeks, which effectively rules him out of the Eagles November 10 and 14th game against Algeria and Argentina respectively.
His withdrawal means one of the players placed on standby will be moved up to the main team as a replacement for the forward.
Alhassan Ibrahim is the only attacking players on standby who are most likely replace Ighalo for the game against Algeria and Argentina.
