Nigeria’s U-20 national team has received a major boost ahead of their World Cup clash against Norway as Molde FK has officially released teenage midfielder, Daniel Daga.
The 18-year-old was unable to travel with the squad from Nigeria to Chile due to club commitments and also missed the team’s 12-day intensive training camp. However, his late arrival is expected to strengthen the Flying Eagles’ midfield options as they prepare for their crucial fixture on Monday.
