Eric Chelle Faces Injury Challenges Ahead of Guinea-Bissau Clash

Super Eagles Head Coach Eric Chelle faces injury challenges ahead of the match against Guinea-Bissau’s Djurtus (Wild Dogs) during the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. George Ilenikhena, who scored on his debut, is doubtful for the match due to a knock, having trained separately from Akor Adams.

With Victor Osimhen also injured, Chelle may need to improvise his starting lineup. Potential replacements include Tolu Arokodare and Taiwo Awoniyi, while Moses Usor, who scored the winning goal against Madagascar, is also being considered for a starting role.

The match is scheduled for this evening in Bissau, and Chelle insists that the Eagles will not underestimate their opponents.
