This was stated by Eguavoen during a press conference in Abuja on Wednesday, ahead of Nigeria’s 2022 FIFA World Cup playoff match against Ghana on Friday in Kumasi.

Ndidi will be absent from the match owing to an injury he suffered while playing for Leicester City.

However, Eguavoen has stated that Ndidi’s absence will not be felt during Nigeria’s match against the Black Stars.
“We wish Ndidi the best of luck in his recovery.” He’s a crucial member of the national team. “I understand how important he is to us, but his absence will have no effect,” he remarked.

“We have a couple of guys that are capable of filling that role.” The idea will not change, nor will the style of play; just the personnel will change.”

“I’m not going to tell you who will play in that position until that day,” he continued. We have a lot to choose from and obtain exactly what we want. There’s a lot on the line. Our goal is to obtain a World Cup ticket, which we hope to achieve. We know we’ll have to battle for it because Ghana shares our desire. However, we must make every effort to cross the finish line.”
