Alhassan Yusuf has declared he will be fit for the Super Eagles clash against the Elephants of Cote d’Ivoire.
The Royal Antwerp player was replaced by Joe Aribo in the 68th minute of Nigeria’s 1-1 draw with Equatorial Guinean on Sunday after sustaining an injury.
Yusuf trained separately from his teammates at the Ecole Nationale de la Police on Monday.
The 23-year-old undergone scan to determine the extent of the injury on Tuesday (today).
”I’m not going to train fully today, but I should be back in full training tomorrow,” he told Completesports.com at the team’s Pullman Hotel base in Abidjan.
“I’m getting better and should be available for the game against Cote d’Ivoire.”
The Super Eagles will face the Elephants at the Alassanne Quattara Stadium, Ebimpe, Abidjan on Thursday.
