The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has officially rubbished claims circulating online that it has suspended Victor Osimhen, Super Eagles striker.
It will be recalled that a source in the Nigerian Football Federation had said that the NFF reportedly banned the Nigerian striker, Victor Osimhen and secretly declared its intention to use the Victor Osimhen case as a deterrent to prevent other players from publicly criticising or disparaging national football heroes and legends.
According to a member of the NFF board, Osimhen would be used as an example to prevent others from doing the same in future.
According to the source, “He (Victor Osimhen) crossed the line with his outburst even when Finidi called him to explain he still didn’t deem it fit to retract his statements. We won’t condone that and after the Salah break, we will sit on the issue. I can tell you he won’t be in the team until he says sorry for his actions”, he concluded.
Meanwhile, NFF has come out to say that they are yet to take a final decision on the Nigerian Striker.
