Super Eagles’ star, Kenneth Omeruo is now a major doubt for the international friendly match between Algeria and Nigeria slated for September 27 in Oran.

Omeruo’s participation in that encounter was thrown in doubt after he picked up an injury during a club engagement on Friday night.

The former Chelsea center-back went down in pains in the 74th minute of CD Leganes’s 1-0 defeat at Las Palmas.

The 28-year-old, who was making his fifth appearance of the season, could not continue afterward and was replaced by Spaniard Juan Muñoz. It was the first time this season that Omeruo would fail to complete the ninety minutes of a league game for the Cucumber Growers.

Legales, though, are yet to reveal the extent of the Nigeria international’s injury at press time.
