Junior Ajayi, newly invited Super Eagles forward, will be unavailable for the team’s upcoming game against Poland owing to visa hitches.

The Eagles players are expected to start arriving Wroclaw on Monday, ahead of the international friendly with the Polish side.

The Nigerian team will trade tackles with Poland on Friday and face Serbia three days later.

Ajayi, who recently emerged as the best foreign player in the Egyptian Premier League, will resort to securing a fast route visa to make it to London for the clash with Serbia.

“It was just a little issue that was beyond our control,” a source told TheCable.

“We were told to wait for close to 14 days to secure the visa to Wroclaw.

“Ajayi will return to Cairo and get ready to travel to London for the game with Serbia. He is calm about the whole situation.

“He is someone that relishes playing for his fatherland following his exploits with the U23 team in the past,” he added.

The former Shooting Stars striker played a key role in Al Ahly’s 40th Premier League title.
