Moffi Set For Training Return After Injury Scare

Terem Moffi, the striker for OGC Nice, is poised to make a comeback to full training this week.

Moffi was notably absent from Nice’s Ligue 1 clash against Le Havre over the weekend, sparking concerns of a potential hamstring injury that could jeopardize his participation in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

However, clarifications have emerged indicating that Moffi’s absence was a precautionary measure owing to a minor injury, aiming to prevent exacerbation by featuring in the weekend fixture.

Addressing the situation, sources stated, “Terem’s absence over the weekend was purely precautionary. He’s dealing with a minor injury, and the decision was made to ensure his recovery.”

Having scored four goals in 15 league appearances for Nice this season, Moffi remains a crucial asset for the team’s attacking prowess. Despite the setback, the 24-year-old is anticipated to rejoin training imminently and is presumed to be a part of Nigeria’s squad for the upcoming 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

Moffi’s imminent return to training serves as a positive sign for both OGC Nice and Nigeria, indicating a swift recovery from the minor setback, potentially ensuring his availability for the much-anticipated continental tournament.
