Rotherham United star, Semi Ajayi has expressed disappointment over the decision of Nigeria coach, Gernot Rohr, to drop him from the Super Eagles’ squad for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON.
DAILY POST had reported on Sunday that Semi Ajayi and Leicester City’s Kelechi Iheanacho were the two players that have been dropped.
Both players did not feature on Saturday as Nigeria were held to a goalless draw by Zimbabwe at an international friendly played in Asaba, the Delta State capital.
Reacting through his Instagram page, Ajayi wished the Super Eagles all the best in Egypt during the tournament.
The 26 year old wrote: “Wishing my brothers the best of luck at the upcoming #AFCON 2019.
“It’s been a privilege to have been part of this squad and as much as I’m gutted that I can’t make it, I wish everyone linked with the Super Eagles the very best of luck this summer.
“I will be supporting the team until the end. Go and make Nigeria proud my brothers.”
