Tremendous Eagles defender, Calvin Bassey, has been handed a one-man ban following his yellow card towards Morocco within the semi-final of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations on Wednesday evening.
Bassey, who was strolling a disciplinary tightrope forward of the sport, was booked within the first half.
This implies he’ll miss Nigeria’s subsequent recreation, whether or not it’s the closing or the third-place playoff.
It has now been confirmed that the suspension can’t be appealed.
The absence of the Fulham centre-back can be an enormous miss for Eric Chelle, as he has been a rock in defence for the three-time African champions.
Captain Wilfred Ndidi is predicted to be again for the subsequent match after serving his suspension.
