Nigeria’s national team, the Super Eagles, will be without one of their key players, Tyrone Ebuehi, for their upcoming friendlies against Ghana and Mali. The defender suffered a serious injury during Empoli’s recent match against Bologna, forcing him to be substituted in the 66th minute.

Empoli confirmed the extent of Ebuehi’s injury, revealing that he has partially torn the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. This news comes as a blow to both the player and the national team, as Ebuehi has been a consistent performer for Empoli this season, making 15 league appearances.

The 28-year-old will now undergo treatment and rehabilitation with Empoli’s medical team, with the hope of making a full recovery in the coming months. Despite this setback, Ebuehi remains determined to return to full fitness and continue his impressive form on the pitch.

As fans eagerly await updates on Ebuehi’s recovery, the Super Eagles will have to regroup and find a suitable replacement for the upcoming friendlies. The team will undoubtedly miss Ebuehi’s presence and defensive prowess, but they will have to adapt and overcome this challenge as they prepare to face tough opposition in Ghana and Mali.

Stay tuned for more updates on Tyrone Ebuehi’s recovery journey and the Super Eagles’ upcoming matches.
