Nantes winger Moses Simon could miss Nigeria’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Rwanda and Zimbabwe due to injury.
The Canaries are sweating on the fitness of the player ahead of this weekend’s home clash with Lille.
Simon played the last 20 minutes of Nantes’ 1-0 defeat to Strasbourg last weekend.
Manager Antoine Kamboure claimed the 29-year-old has struggled to train with his teammates this week.
“He hasn’t trained all week. He stayed in the gym Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, but he completed the session today,” Simon was quoted by Ouest- France
“His ankle is still hurting. There’s obviously some concern. We’re managing it, but for him, it’s complicated.”
The talented winger was named in Nigeria’s 23-man squad for the World Cup qualifiers this week.
Bayer Leverkusen winger Nathan Tella has already pulled out of the squad due to injury.
