NIGERIA forward and Napoli talisman, Victor Osimhen has insisted that he would do whatever it takes to win the support and love of the fans for the national team after a series of disappointments.
The Super Eagles of Nigeria handed Nigerians one of the biggest blows in football history after falling to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, losing the spot to neighbours and rivals, the Black Stars of Ghana.
Osimhen, who is expected to lead the attack against Guinea Bissau tomorrow, appreciated the fans for their support while promising to win their love back for the national team.
“Of course, the boys are ready to give their all come Friday and also the second leg in Guinea-Bissau. I am looking forward to the game and contributing to the team.
"I want to promise that we will try everything possible to get the win, and of course, I would like to contribute with a lot of goals and a couple of assists... [but] the team come first. I want to assure that [players] will give everything to make sure the fans are happy by getting the win and getting qualification to AFCON.
"I know we might have let you down in the past. I want to say we will do everything in our power to make sure that we win your love back,” Osimhen said as quoted by a Sports medium.
Should the Super Eagles of Nigeria win the back-to-back games against Guinea Bissau, they would secure a spot in the next AFCON tournament with two games in hand.
