Chelsea player Kenneth Omeruo reportedly makes U-turn, agrees to participate in Rio Olympics
Kenneth Omeruo, a Chelsea central defender who played this past season
on loan in Turkey, has reportedly agreed to join Samson Siasia's team
and participate in the upcoming Rio Olympics tournament.
22 year old Kenneth will not be one of the three over-aged players
allowed for this U23 tournament in August because of his age and can
join as a regular player.However, Omeruo earlier opted out, insisting he was
working on medical advise and won't participate because of a troublesome
groin problem.
“Kenneth has given his word to be at the Olympics,” a top official told AfricanFootball.com “He will most certainly be a worthy replacement for injured Segun Oduduwa.”
