Former Nigeria international, Victor Agali has advised Victor Osimhen not to rush back from injury as it could be detrimental. Agali’s advice comes after Osimhen, on Tuesday, said he was ready to feature for Nigeria at next year’s AFCON in Cameroon despite just recovering from a facial injury. The Napoli striker had fractured his eye socket and cheekbone after colliding with an Inter Milan player, following which Napoli had announced that he would be sidelined for three months which automatically rule him out of the AFCON event.
