2022 FIFA WCQ: NFF reveals why Leicester City winger Ademola Lookman might not be invited for Ghana clash
Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has disclosed why Leicester City winger, Ademola Lookman, might not play against Ghana in the final play-offs of the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
FIFA has approved Lookman’s switch from England, for whom he helped win the Under-20 World Cup in 2017.
This clearance means the 24-year-old could play in the two-legged ties next month but the NFF says unless the coach invites him.
“We are excited about this positive news because it comes as a major boost for the national team.
“He’s now eligible to play for Nigeria starting with next month’s matches, but a decision whether to invite him or not is the sole responsibility of the coach.
“Lookman is a great addition to the Super Eagles and after a long wait, we are delighted that he can finally play for us,” NFF director of communications, Ademola Olajire, told BBC Sport Africa.
