Although he missed the first leg against Cameroon, but Hull City defender Ola Aina could make his international debut for the Super Eagles on Monday in the second leg clash against Cameroon in Yaounde after his international clearance came through from the World governing body, FIFA.
Quoting a reliable source in the Nigeria Football Federation, Completesportsnigeria the eagles wonder kid who switched allegiance to play for Nigeria has been given the green light to do so by the world soccer ruling body, FIFA.
Aina was ineligible to feature for Nigeria in Friday’s 2018 World Cup qualifier against Cameroon which ended 4-0 in favour of the Super Eagles at the Godswill Akpabio stadium, in Uyo because the NFF was still awaiting official greenlight from FIFA .
Now the 20 year old will be eligible for selection in the reverse fixture in Yaounde on Monday.
“It’s a double celebration for us. Aina’s clearance has come through from FIFA, and he could feature for Nigeria in Yaounde,” the source informed. (Completesportsnigeria)
