Super Eagles coach down with acute typhoid fever

Sunday Oliseh is battling acute typhoid fever according to a source in the Super Eagles team B camp.

Oliseh was flown to Belgium to receive medical care after he fell ill in the Super Eagles camp where the home based players were preparing for their AfricanNations Championship qualifying match against Burkina Faso.

According to Sporting Life, Oliseh was not properly treated in Port Harcourt where the Super Eagles was based which led to the deterioration in his health.

The home based Super Eagles players and staff have arrived Ouagadougou, capital of Burkina Faso ahead of the game tomorrow and Oliseh has revealed that he has faith in the boys to deliver in his absence.

He has told the team administrator, Dayo Enebi, to update him always via sms, adding that “I’m with the team in spirit so keep me updated.

“I have absolute confidence in the team even in my absence they will get the job done for Nigeria on Sunday.”
