Iheanacho, a great player for Leicester City, is recovering nicely from a muscular ailment, according to NFF President Ibrahim Gusau.

 “I have spoken to Iheanacho, he’s recovering fast and has even started running,” Gusau told reporters.

“He will most likely join us in Lagos, where the team will be hosted to a dinner on 9 January.”

Gusau lauded the support of the Nigerian government in the country’s quest to win a fourth African title.

And he expressed optimism the team will make Nigeria proud in the Ivory Coast.

“I have confidence in the team,” he said.
