Super Eagles’ midfielder, Ogenyi Onazi, could be back to full fitness in six weeks.
The Nigeria midfielder was stretchered off in the Super Eagles 2-0 loss to France on Monday, no thanks to a challenge from Blaise Matuidi.
Initial report claimed that the star player fractured his tibia and fibula, but Lazio medical staff have looked at the tests and believe it will take around a month and a half to completely recover.
Ogenyi, who has since returned to Nigeria after the World Cup, will join up with Lazio in Italy in a few days from now ahead of their Pre season build up.
