By Gowon Akpodonor on June 2, 2018

Super Eagles and Gent winger, Moses Simon, was in sober mood yesterday, as he departed the team’s camp in London for Belgium after scans conducted confirmed that he will be out of action for three weeks.

Simon was at the Hive Stadium on Thursday and underwent series of scans, while his Super Eagles teammates were sweating it out in a workout ahead their friendly against England. The match will hold today at the Wembley Stadium.

‘’Simon is finally out of the 2018 World Cup and he is unhappy that he won’t be traveling to Russia with the Super Eagles squad,’’ a source in the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) told allnigeriasoccer.com.

‘’The scan performed on Thursday confirmed he will be out for three weeks. Simon just left the Super Eagles hotel and said he is going to Belgium.’’

There are 25 players presently in the Super Eagles camp in London, and coach Gernot Rohr must drop two by June 4.

The players are expected to leave their hotel for the Wembley Stadium at 16:45 hours for their final workout before the friendly against the Three Lions today.
