The Nigeria Football Federation on Wednesday said Super Eagles’ winger, Moses Simon would undergo one more final scan in London ahead of Nigeria’s game against England on Saturday. The News Agency of Nigeria reports that Simon was initially ruled out of the World Cup by Head Coach Gernot Rohr after the player’s scan results confirmed he would be out of the tournament. However, Moses requested for a further scan in the UK, with Rohr granting him his wish to prove his fitness ahead of the world cup. He will no doubt be a massive miss should further scan confirm him unfit to play at the Mundial in Russia next month. The Franco-German had earlier revealed that five players would be dropped from the cut but injury to winger Moses Simon opened up for probably one new inclusion.
