The
Super Eagles take on Mexico in a friendly in Houston, Texas, on
Thursday. They then travel to Kenya on June 5 and a week later they are
in Namibia for World Cup qualifiers before they jet out to Brazil for
the FIFA Confederations Cup.
Moses
has pulled out of all these games and his club have announced he will
only be fit again by July 6 after undergoing treatment.
The
player said on his Tweeter handle Wednesday @VictorMoses: “Devastated
not to be able to represent my country this summer bt have to respect
medical advice on injury. I’ll be supporting though #nigeria.”
Moses
represented England at various age-group levels, but made his Eagles
debut against Rwanda in a Nations Cup qualifier two years ago and went
on to shine as Nigeria won a third Nations Cup in South Africa earlier
this year.
Injury-hit
Spartak Moscow striker Emmanuel Emenike and Kalu Uche from Turkish club
Kasimpasa have also pulled out of the Nigeria squad ahead of a hectic
summer schedule.
