Nigeria’s U-20 national team player, Obinna Nwobodo, has
successfully completed treatment for anterior cruciate ligament tear, and will
fly back to Nigeria from Qatar on Friday.
The Enugu Rangers
midfielder who was injured during the final match of the 2015 African Youth
Championship between host Senegal and Nigeria in Dakar on March 22, 2015, did
his final MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) on Tuesday and was declared fit to
return to action.
The NFF sent the
player to the Aspetar Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Hospital, Doha, Qatar at
the beginning of July, and he had a successful operation on July 7.
NFF General Secretary,
Mohammed Sanusi, on Tuesday said the joy of the federation is that the player
is back on his feet.
“Obinna Nwobodo was
injured on national duty and we feel duty-bound to give him full treatment to
recover and return to the game that he loves so much. We are happy that this
has been achieved and the player will return to Nigeria on Friday.”
