It was cheers and delight for players of the Nigeria National League, who during their early morning training session had the stars in their midst.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the other players who arrived in the early hours of Tuesday morning include three other English-based players, namely: Frank Onyeka (Brentford FC, England); William Ekong (Watford FC, England) and Oluwasemilogo Ajayi (West Bromwich Albion, England).

Howe had to watch the game at home after testing positive for the coronavirus, and his team seemed to be heading for defeat when captain Jamaal Lascelles inadvertently turned substitute Frank Onyeka’s 62nd-minute shot into his own net.

The 23-year-old joins from FC Midtjylland, where Bees owner Matthew Benham is the majority shareholder, for an undisclosed fee.

The talented Nigerian is regarded among the most talented players to be playing in Denmark.

The Nigeria Football Federation revealed this via its official Twitter handle @thenff on Monday.

Ndidi’s absence, due to a groin injury, for which he has undergone surgery, also opens the door for at least one exciting new prospect – Frank Onyeka of FC Midtylland in Denmark – to follow in Joe Aribo’s footsteps and make his mark on the Super Eagles.
