Nigeria coach Gernot Rohr confirmed he will be parading a full strength squad in Sunday’s Africa Cup of Nations semi-final against Algeria, but it remains to be seen whether Victor Osimhen and Henry Onyekuru will play a role.
The duo, along with Francis Uzoho, are the only Super Eagles players yet to play in the tournament despite Rohr’s rotation strategy.
However against Algeria in Cairo, Osimhen and Onyekuru could be thrown into the fray, with Uzoho expected to warm the bench throughout the championship.
“We had two changes before the game against South Africa, the winning team against Cameroon has been changed and it is possible that we will change the team again because all the players are ready to go,” said Rohr during Saturday’s pre-match conference.
