Telem Moffi was unable to play for his club for more than four weeks due to a hamstring injury and was therefore unable to represent Nigeria at AFCON
OGC manager Francesco Faglioli has hinted at the possibility of Nigeria international Terem Mofi returning despite a hamstring injury, Soccernet.ng reported.
Mofi is part of the reserve squad that will represent Nigeria in the upcoming 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, but there are concerns after news broke that he may be sidelined for about a month due to a hamstring injury. It happened.
Ahead of the Ligue 1 match against RC Lens at the Allianz Riviera Stadium, Farioli hinted that Moffi could feature if his injury is not serious.
“We’ll try to get him. Today he’s going to train with the team, but we’ll see how he reacts. We’re hoping to get it back. “But we will not take unnecessary risks. If the players want to play, they will play, but if they don’t, we will not play,” Faglioli explained on the club’s website.
Moffi’s recent contribution of 4 goals and 2 assists in 15 Ligue 1 appearances underlines his importance to the team, and his return for both OGC Nice and the Super Eagles ahead of the AFCON tournament potential is extremely important.
