Okoye was said to have suffered a set back in training hence the decision to grant him permission to leave before the last game. The Udinese man who was making his comeback to the team after snubbing the AFCON is however fit to play in the Serie A against Como on Monday.

It shows the decision of head coach of the Nigerian team Eric Chelle to let them leave was done to not aggravate the knock they picked up.
