Super Eagles manager, Gernot Rohr has received bad news from South Africa regarding the fitness of his number one goalkeeper, Daniel Akpeyi, ahead of the national team’s vital two tier World Cup qualifiers against Cameroon in September.
Akpeyi was not involved in Chippa United’s 2-0 win over AmaZulu FC on Tuesday evening after picking up an injury in training days leading up to the clash at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium (Port Elizabeth).
The verdict from the Chilli Boys medics is that the Super Eagles netminder has suffered a ‘minor injury’ to a muscle.
Though the severity of Akpeyi’s injury is not as bad as first thought, he has been advised by the medical team not to train with Chippa United until he reports for international duty this weekend.
The other goalkeepers named in the Super Eagles squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Cameroon are Ikechukwu Ezenwa and C.D. Feirense greenhorn, Dele Alampasu.
