October 17, 2024 Nigeria Set To Miss Out On Omorodion

Nigeria is poised to lose Samuel Omorodion to Spain, as the striker is likely to receive his first senior call-up for the UEFA Nations League matches in November.

Spain has been facing challenges in finding a prolific striker, but there is optimism that this issue may soon be resolved. Álvaro Morata's time as the primary center forward is winding down, and Omorodion, who has been in exceptional form this season, is seen as a natural successor.

Since transferring from Atlético Madrid to Porto, Omorodion has scored 11 goals, including four during Spain U21's recent victory over Malta. He narrowly missed inclusion in La Roja's squad for the current international break but is expected to be called up for the senior team in November, according to reports from MD.

Spain will compete against Denmark and Switzerland in their last two UEFA Nations League fixtures, needing just two draws to secure progression. This lack of immediate pressure may allow coach Luis de la Fuente to explore different options, making Omorodion an appealing choice for next month.

Notably, Omorodion was part of the Spain squad that clinched the football gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
