Base on the last training of the senior national team of Nigeria ahead of their friendly game against Brazil, coach Gernot Rohr appears to have settled for Leganes defender Chidozie Awaziem as his right fullback for the game.
Rohr lost Ola Aina who played the position recently against Ukraine to injury hence making the spot vacant but despite Shehu Abdullahi who use to be the first choice right back and Tyronne Ebuehi who displaced Shehu at the World Cup, Awaziem appears to be his choice.
Awaziem who is originally a centre defender played the role at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations after Shehu Abdullahi suffered an injury in the first game although he played as a centre defender in the last friendly against Ukraine.
During the training session, Owngoalnigeria.com gathered that Awaziem lined up with the team that looks likely to start while the duo of Abdullahi and Ebuehi were with the other team with latter playing as a left fullback as Jamilu Collins is the only left full back in the squad.
