The chances of out of favour Nigeria international striker Tolu Arokodare returning to the team for the Unity Cup in London isn’t certain, OwnGoalNigeria.com can exclusively reveal.
Arokodare raced into becoming the first choice partner for Victor Osimhen in the early days of Eric Chelle as coach of the team, but lost his spot in November to Jerome Akor of Sevilla.
He was dropped from the team to the AFCON, and even the subsequently friendly games against Iran and Jordan respectively. There were suggestions that he will return to the team for the Unity Cup later this month.
However per what we exclusively gathered, it is not certain if he will be in team with one source saying something happened in November during the world cup qualifiers playoff in Morocco that dented his relationship with Chelle.
He however refused to go into details of what happened, but said Chelle is in the best position to deal with it in the way that is best for the team and also the future.
