The organisers of the Unity Cup friendly tournament in England say Victor Osimhen has to be a part of the Nigerian team for the tournament which begins at the end of the season, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
Osimhen and a host of other stars of the Nigerian team are expected in the tournament, which will see them take on Ghana on the 28th of May before taking on Jamaica three days later.
Sales of tickets for the tournament which will be held at Brentford’s home ground has started in earnest, but it’s moving really slow no thanks to concerns that top stars of all teams are likely going to be unavailable.
A member of the organisers in a private conversation with a member of our editorial team said they are facing difficulties with Nigerians, who are not keen unless they are assured of the presence of top players especially the star of the team in Osimhen.
