Kenneth Omeruo Plays 90 Minutes for Kasimpasa 72 Hours Hours After Leaving Super Eagles Group

February, 17 2024.

Super Eagles defender Kenneth Omeruo was on display for the entire 90 minutes as his side Kasimpasa held Fatih Karagumruk to a 1-1 draw in Friday's Super Lig tie at the Reccip Tayip Erdogan Stadium on Friday evening.


The defence stalwart once again showed his commitment, professionalism, and hard work that has characterized his career thus far. He was a part of the Super Eagles squad that was hosted on Monday by president Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and flew back to Turkey on Tuesday. Three days later, he was amongst the starters for his side and showed no signs of fatigue as he featured in the entire duration of the encounter.


In his exclusive chat with www.ckdmedia.ng, the AFCON 2023 silver medalist said that "I am pleased to have played for my club today. Even though we wanted to win, we only settled for a draw. My club wanted me to be a part of the match and they sent an official letter to the NFF for me to be part of the team for this weekend's tie."


When asked about coping with fatigue after a long tournament and trip from Abuja, he said "it is my job and whenever my club or my nation needs me, I do all I can to be available for them."
