Super Eagles Captain Thankful After Successful Surgery

Nigeria’s Super Eagles captain, Ahmed Musa, has confirmed that his surgery was a success.  Due to an injury, the 29-year-old was forced to withdraw from Nigeria’s Super Eagles team for an international friendly against Algeria’s Desert Foxes.

The Super Eagles Captain shared a snapshot of himself resting in a hospital bed with the physicians who did the procedure.  The images were accompanied by a note that reads, “I just want to express my heartfelt appreciation to Allah for a successful surgery on my left arm. As we all know, no surgery is too minor so I am grateful for the competent doctors assigned to me for a job well done. Also to you all, for your messages, prayers and words of encouragement. I hope to be back on the field soon stronger and absolutely better. Thanks everyone.”
