AFCON 2023: Super Eagles receive huge boost as Victor Osimhen CLEARED to face Bafana Bafana

Osimhen had been doubtful for Nigeria's trip to Bouake to face rivals South Africa for a place in Sunday’s Africa Cup of Nations final.

The Napoli hit-man has started all 5 of the Super Eagles' five games in Cote d'Ivoire, scoring against Equatorial Guinea and playing crucial roles against the hosts Ivory Coast where he won the decisive penalty, and setting up Ademola Lookman against Cameroon,

Pulse Sports earlier reported that the Super Eagles striker was a major doubt for the semi-final clash but latest reports indicate the 25-year-old has passed a late fitness test and traveled to Bouake to join up with the rest of the squad.

According to POOJA on X, Osimhen is now on his way to meet up with the rest of the Nigeria squad in what represents a huge boost to Jose Peseiro, the rest of the coaching staff, and the nation as a whole. 

Fans will be eagerly anticipating his impact on the game as Nigeria aim for victory.
