” Kayode got his invitation for the game via mail last week, and spoke with the coach about a convenient date with him since the league in Austria will still be on when the camp opens”, he told Owngoalnigeria.com.

” So in a nutshell he has been granted permission by Rohr to miss the Corsica game but will be in camp ahead of the game against South Africa”.
