Afcon 2021 Group D: Osimhen and Dennis will be a big blow for Nigeria – Eguavoen

The Super Eagles coach admits the absence of Osimhen and Dennis is a big blow for the Super Eagles ahead of their African cup of the nation in Cameroon.

According to Eguavoen they will have to change their style of play in the absence of the two players.

Eguavoen has now acknowledged the two players will greatly be missed and further hinted at a potential formation switch during the tournament set to run until February 6.

“The only thing is to change the style of play because the personnel is not there as we expected,” Eguavoen said as quoted by Allnigeriasoccer. “Victor Osimhen is a big miss, Emmanuel Dennis is in form, also a big miss.”

The Super Eagles will begin their campaign against the Pharaohs at the Roumde Adjia Stadium on January 11.
