The defender is now expected to be available for PAOK Salonica’s last three league games of the season.

His return will be a big boost for Nigeria, who will keep a date with South Africa and Benin in a 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers in June.

The Super Eagles are yet to record a win in the qualifying series.
