John Ogu will not travel to France for a training camp with the Super Eagles owing to visa issues, scorenigeria.com reports.
And as a result, the big defensive midfielder is set to miss the friendly games against the French island of Corsica in Ajaccio and the Hawks of Togo in Paris.
“I’m not sure he (Ogu) will make the trip as he doesn’t have a valid Schengen visa,” a source revealed.
Ogu, who scored the goal that earned his club Hapoel Be’er Sheva the Israeli league title for the second year running, is presently in the country, following a successful season in Europe.
Already, Victor Osimhen and Henry Onyekuru are out of the Corsica, while Germany-based defender Leon balogun is an injury doubt after he was forced out of a Bundesliga game at the weekend.
Osimhen is involved in a relegation/promotion playoff with Wolfsburg, while Onyekuru will only join the Eagles training camp on the day of the Corsica clash.
